Revises provisions relating to energy storage systems. (BDR 58-60)

SB 314-82 revises Nevada's energy storage regulations to modernize requirements for electric utilities and installation practices. It requires the Public Utilities Commission to set biennial procurement targets for energy storage systems based on customer benefits relative to costs (replacing outdated 2018 deadlines), and mandates that non-residential electrochemical energy storage installations after July 1, 2025, be performed by certified professionals following specific safety standards. The bill directly affects electric utilities (through revised procurement rules), contractors (via new licensing and training requirements), and the Commission (through updated target-setting procedures). Key changes include eliminating obsolete provisions, clarifying facility definitions, and establishing disciplinary actions for unlicensed installations. These provisions aim to streamline energy storage deployment while ensuring safety and cost-effectiveness for Nevada's grid.
