"We appreciate the leadership of Assemblywoman Daniele Monroe Moreno and Senator Chris Brooks and the work of our state legislature to establish energy policies that help us bring the economic benefits of solar energy directly to low-income communities," said Doug Cannon, NV Energy President and Chief Executive Officer. "Community-based solar projects like the one we are developing at Mojave High School will create local jobs and provide educational opportunities for the students in their own communities. This effort is about making sure every Nevadan receives benefits from the renewable energy resources we have in this state."
