BEFORE THE PUBLIC UTILITIES COMMISSION OF NEVADA

NOTICE OF APPLICATION FOR APPROVAL OF AN ENERGY SUPPLY

AGREEMENT AND NOTICE OF PREHEARING CONFERENCE

On June 10, 2024, Sierra Pacific Power Company d/b/a NV Energy

(“Sierra”) and Callisto Enterprises LLC (“Google” and together with

Sierra, “Joint Applicants”) filed with the Public Utilities Commission

of Nevada (“Commission”) a joint application, designated as Docket

No. 24-06014 (“Joint Application”), for approval of an Energy Supply

Agreement (“ESA”).

This Notice serves only to notify the public that the Commission

has received the above-referenced filing. It is the responsibility of

interested persons to review the filing and monitor the proceedings to

determine their desired levels of involvement based on how this matter

may affect their unique situations. The details provided within this

Notice are for informational purposes only and are not meant to be an

all-inclusive overview of the filing. The Commission may consider and

adopt alternative proposals not contained within the filing, but which are

related to the subject matter of the filing and supported by substantial

evidence.

Joint Applicants filed the Joint Application pursuant to the Nevada

Revised Statutes (“NRS”) and the Nevada Administrative Code (“NAC”),

Chapters 703 and 704, including, but not limited to, NAC 703.535 and

the Clean Transition Tariff (“CTT”) that is pending approval in Docket

No. 24-05023. Pursuant to NRS 703.190 and NAC 703.527 et seq.,

Joint Applicants request that certain material in the Joint Application

receive confidential treatment.

Joint Applicants state that the Joint Application seeks approval of

a long-term energy supply period within the ESA to meet Google’s

corporate goals regarding carbon-free energy supply on an hourly load

matching basis, which requires access to dedicated clean generation

sources to supply its facilities in a manner that complies with the CTT

requirements and does not result in any increased costs or forgone

benefits for non-participating customers.

Interested and affected persons may file petitions for leave to

intervene pursuant to NAC 703.578 through 703.600 at either of the

Commission’s offices on or before WEDNESDAY, JULY 10, 2024.
