LAS VEGAS (KTNV) — A federal program designed to help low-income households access solar energy and reduce costs is reportedly on the chopping block , putting the $156 million in funds for Nevadans at risk.

The Environmental Protection Agency's $7 billion grant program was funded by the Biden Administration's Inflation Reduction Act . In 2024, 60 nonprofit groups, tribes and states were allotted the funding.

Channel 13 contacted the Nevada Clean Energy Fund (NCEF) — the distributor of the grant for our state. CEO Kirsten Stasio said as of Wednesday, the organization has not received a termination notice.

Since its launch, the "Solar for All" program has received interest from over 300 single-family households in Nevada, according to the NCEF.
