Installers, contractors and solar service companies whose service area covers Nevada.
Nevada is America's solar heavyweight. About 8,250 megawatts are installed — sixth in the nation and enough to power roughly 1.4 million homes — nearly a third of the electricity generated in the state now comes from the sun, and Nevada ranks fourth nationally for battery storage to keep that power flowing after sunset. A state standard requiring 50% renewable power by 2030 keeps the desert pipeline growing.
Homeowners share in it through net metering, which Nevada restored in 2017: NV Energy customers can size a system to cover up to 100% of their annual electricity use, every kilowatt-hour your home uses directly offsets your bill, and the excess you send to the grid earns credits under the state tariff. With some of the strongest sunshine in the country, Las Vegas and Reno rooftops are among the most productive anywhere — and pairing panels with a battery blunts the evening peak, when desert air conditioners work hardest.
The export-credit rules are under review at the state utilities commission, so ask each installer below to confirm the rate in effect for your start date.
