Through the Economic Recovery Transportation Electrification Plan (ERTEP), NV Energy will invest nearly $100 million to rapidly expand electric vehicle (EV) charging station access across Nevada from 2022 through 2024. ERTEP will help drive economic recovery and accelerate transportation electrification in Nevada by:
- Strategically expanding charging station availability – prioritizing placement in historically underserved communities
- Increasing access to clean energy job opportunities
- Supporting EV driver tourism
ERTEP will result in the installation of 1,000+ EV chargers at urban areas, tourist destinations, community centers, highway stops & more. Chargers will support the electrification of personal & rideshare cars, fleet vehicles, transit buses, bikes & even boats! Over 40% of investment will be designed to directly benefit historically underserved communities.
The plan will also promote expanded job training to ensure Nevada’s electrical workforce benefits from this growing market.
