People have always built bold futures in Nevada. The need for Nevada’s domestic energy is becoming more urgent as the day goes on. Families, businesses, and community leaders want to know how the state can get cheap, reliable power without putting jobs at risk and supporting long-term growth. The answer is to make more energy here at home.
When energy comes from far away
When energy comes from far away, people in Nevada have to deal with uncertainty. The world markets change. Costs of transportation go up. It gets harder to deal with outages. Nevada can have more say over its economic future if it focuses on energy independence. Local production helps workers, brings in money, and keeps more money moving around in our communities.
Nevada has what it needs to meet this challenge
Nevada has what it needs to meet this challenge. Responsible development can help meet Nevada’s energy needs at home while protecting land, water, and wildlife. This includes solar-rich valleys and promising geothermal fields. Smart planning encourages new ideas, keeps people safe, and keeps the state from being dependent on outside suppliers that could leave it open to attack.
Less imports is another benefit
Fewer imports is another benefit. The more we rely on energy from other states or countries, the stronger our grid becomes. Local projects make small towns stronger, create skilled jobs, and give people a say in how power is made and used. This strategy makes Nevada more resilient during times of economic change and unexpected problems.
Politics have nothing to do with building a diverse energy portfolio
Politics has nothing to do with building a diverse energy portfolio. It’s all about being practical. It’s about making sure that businesses stay open, lights stay on, and families can plan for the future with confidence. Meeting Nevada’s energy needs through responsible domestic production is a way to invest in stability and change.
