Members of an energy task force committee focused on rooftop solar issues are expected to vote today on whether to recommend “grandfathering” for customers who were early-adopters. The policy would involve letting some customers go back to the more generous rate structure in place before the Public Utilities Commission updated it in December. Rooftop solar companies cut jobs in Nevada after the rates changed, saying it made their business model unviable. If the committee recommends grandfathering, it would be up for consideration by the full task force and could become a bill in the 2017 legislative session.
