NV Energy says exploding demand from data centers has put Nevada’s clean energy target at risk, even as the state requires more renewables. The utility warns it could miss the renewable standard as soon as next year. NV Energy says data center requests drive a much bigger load forecast than it expected two years ago. It says it may lean more on natural gas as some solar projects stall. NV Energy plans to file an early resource plan in April. If it misses the standard, regulators can fine the utility or grant a waiver.
