The testimony reviews and critiques NV Energy’s (NVE) supply-side resource planning in its 2025-2044 Integrated Resource Plan (IRP). It argues that NVE’s Balanced Plan, including the Valmy combustion turbine additions, does not effectively minimize cost or risk compared to other options.

Additionally, it discusses the role of flexible load resources and advanced transmission solutions.
