💬 Nina Bailey, a business owner who provides affordable housing, on #AB458: "This bill would benefit a business owner like myself..."
"The benefit from [AB 458] would be extreme. I would've netted over the course of a 20yr period that these loans are set up for, something close to $300,000."
💬 Christi Cabrera-Georgeson, NCL's Deputy Director, on #AB458: "This bill is a top priority bill for NCL... We're not alone in that."
"Recent polling shows that 78% of Nevadans support expanding solar access to renters in affordable housing."
Big thanks to Assemblymember Howard Watts for bringing this forward, and to the Senate Growth & Infrastructure Committee for hearing this important bill.
#AB458 is about making sure energy savings aren’t reserved for the lucky few.
They should belong to all of us. #NVLeg
☀️ In a recent @lasvegassun.bsky.social op-ed, #LV homeowner Marija Minic called #AB458 a “win-win for #NV.”
#AB458 levels the playing field so renters in affordable housing can finally benefit from rooftop solar savings, just like homeowners already do.

Here’s what #AB458 would do:
✅ Remove outdated rules that block solar in affordable housing
✅ Allow buildings with separate meters to share rooftop solar
✅ Cut renters’ electricity bills
✅ Support good-paying local clean energy jobs

🏘️ Right now, families in multifamily housing can’t install shared solar if their building has separate electric meters.
It’s a legal barrier, not a technical one, and it keeps thousands of Nevadans locked out of savings.
#AB458 would change that. #NVLeg
🚨 LIVE NOW: #NVLeg Senate G&I Committee is hearing #AB458: a bill to finally make solar work for renters and homeowners alike.
Too many Nevadans, especially in affordable housing, are stuck with sky-high energy bills and no way to cut costs...
