List of power stations in Nevada

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Sources of Nevada electricity generation: full-year 2020 [1]

  Coal (4.8%)
  Natural Gas (66.3%)
  Hydroelectric (4.8%)
  Wind (0.8%)
  Biomass (0.1%)
  Solar (13.7%)
  Geothermal (9.4%)

This is a list of electricity-generating power stations in the U.S. state of Nevada, sorted by type and name. In 2019, Nevada had a total summer capacity of 11,938 MW through all of its power plants, and a net generation of 39,890 GWh.[2] The corresponding electrical energy generation mix was 6.9% coal, 64.6% natural gas, 12.1% solar, 9.8% geothermal, 5.6% hydroelectric, 0.8% wind, and 0.2% biomass.[1]

Small-scale solar including customer-owned photovoltaic panels delivered an additional net 680 GWh to Nevada's electricity grid in 2019. This was seven times smaller than the amount generated by the state's utility-scale PV plants.[1] Nevada ranks second in the nation as a producer of geothermal resources, and fourth as a producer of solar resources.[3]
