From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Sources of Nevada electricity generation: full-year 2023[1]

  Natural Gas (58.1%)
  Solar (23%)
  Geothermal (10.1%)
  Coal (4.9%)
  Hydroelectric (3.1%)
  Wind (0.7%)
  Biomass (0.1%)

This is a list of electricity-generating power stations in the U.S. state of Nevada, sorted by type and name. In 2022, Nevada had a total summer capacity of 13,541 MW through all of its power plants, and a net generation of 42,591 GWh.[2] In 2023, the electrical energy generation mix was 58.1% natural gas, 23% solar, 10.1% geothermal, 4.9% coal, 3.1% hydroelectric, 0.7% wind, and 0.1% biomass.[1]

Small-scale solar including customer-owned photovoltaic panels delivered an additional net 1,690 GWh to Nevada's electricity grid in 2023. This was more than five 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]
