- The Public Utilities Commission of Nevada has approved a partnership between Google and NV Energy for clean energy.
- This partnership will introduce new, clean capacity to Nevada through the Clean Transition Tariff.
- The Clean Transition Tariff provides a scalable pathway for utilities and large energy users to invest in clean electricity and accelerate advanced technologies.
- The tariff can be replicated in various U.S. electricity markets, and discussions are already taking place in other states.
- The energy supply agreement will add 115 megawatts of around-the-clock enhanced geothermal power to Nevada's grid.
- This clean power will support Google's data centers and cloud region in Nevada.
- The initiative moves Google closer to achieving its 24/7 carbon-free energy goal.

The Public Utilities Commission of Nevada has
approved our first-of-its-kind partnership with NV Energy to bring new, clean capacity to Nevada under the Clean Transition Tariff (CTT).
This new type of utility rate creates a
scalable pathway for utilities and large energy users to invest in clean, reliable electricity and accelerate advanced technologies. The CTT can be replicated in many U.S. electricity markets, and we are already seeing conversations emerge in several other states.
Announced last year and approved today, our energy supply agreement will add 115 MW of new “around-the-clock” enhanced geothermal power to Nevada's grid. Developed by Fervo Energy and delivered by NV Energy, this clean power will support Google’s data centers and cloud region in Nevada — while bringing us closer to our 24/7 carbon-free energy (CFE)
goal.
