PUCN reaffirms order and grants NV Energy cost‑recovery clarification for disaster protection plan
Summary
The Commission voted to grant petitions for clarification and reconsideration and reaffirm its Sept. 19, 2025, order, allowing NV Energy to pursue cost recovery related to its joint Natural Disaster Protection Plan under the terms set out in the draft order.
Chair Haley Williamson introduced docket 25‑02032, describing the joint application of Nevada Power Company (d/b/a NV Energy) and Sierra Pacific Power Company (d/b/a NV Energy) seeking approval to recover regulatory-asset costs for their joint Natural Disaster Protection Plan. "The draft order before you recommends granting the petitions for clarification and reconsideration and reaffirming the Commission's order issued 09/19/2025," she said.
After brief opportunity for questions — none were raised — the Chair moved to grant the petitions for clarification and reconsideration, reaffirm the prior order and issue the appropriate order. The motion was seconded and carried on a voice vote. The draft order was accepted as filed; no additional briefing or modifications were made on the record during the meeting.
The action resolves outstanding cost‑recovery issues identified in the prior proceedings and implements the draft order's direction; Commissioners did not discuss adjustments to rate‑payer cost allocation during the public meeting.
