LAS VEGAS ( FOX5 ) — People from across the Las Vegas Valley are demanding answers about several issues with NV Energy as the Public Utilities Commission of Nevada holds consumer sessions Wednesday.
The commission already held one general consumer session earlier in the day, with another scheduled for later Wednesday evening. People rallied ahead of the next session, demanding transparency and accountability over controversies involving NV Energy.
First session draws opposition to demand charge
The first consumer session brought in many people who were not happy with the new demand charge taking effect next year.
“I’m speaking today because NV Energy’s new daily demand charge isn’t fair, especially for those of us who produce clean power for the grid,” said Vince Vilan, a solar user.
