SB 132 Nevada Senate · 2025 Regular Session

Makes an appropriation to the Nevada Clean Energy Fund for securing and implementing grants for qualified clean energy projects. (BDR S-593)

SB 132 appropriates $500,000 from the State General Fund to the Nevada Clean Energy Fund to support qualified clean energy projects in Nevada. This funding covers temporary project funding ("bridge funding"), technical assistance for state/local agencies, and administrative costs for the fund. The fund must submit two reports detailing how the money was spent to the Interim Finance Committee by late 2026 and 2027, and any unused funds must be returned to the State General Fund by September 17, 2027. The bill directly affects clean energy projects receiving grants and requires strict financial accountability for the state funds allocated.

The bill was converted from a draft reprint to its final enacted form, adding a new requirement for a final report due in September 2027 and establishing a strict deadline to revert any unspent funds to the State General Fund by that same date.
