NV Energy (South — Nevada Power) LGS-3 — EV fast-charging electricity cost

NV Energy South LGS-3 is the filed rate schedule ForgeAsset models for DC fast-charging sites in NV Energy territory in Nevada. Energy prices at 6.5¢/kWh–8.9¢/kWh by time of day; the demand side bills $9.42/kW of monthly peak. For one reference Supercharger site held constant across the whole library, that works out to 27.8¢/kWh per dispensed kWh — rank 29 of 86 filed tariffs (1 = least expensive).

Modeled rates

NV Energy's southern large-service rate for the Las Vegas valley: moderate energy prices with a summer demand charge billed on the peak inside a single 3–9 p.m. daily window — which coincides with a charging site's monthly peak — and a light winter facilities charge. Nevada levies no sales tax on electricity, so the stamped tariff totals are the modeled figures. The fuel components reset quarterly, the fastest cadence in the covered set; figures carry the July 2026 reset.

What the reference site pays here

Reference site: 8 Tesla V4 stalls at 235 kWh/stall/day (57,183 kWh dispensed per month), a 150kW per-stall demand assumption, the model's default time-of-use mix, and a 12% loss gross-up — identical to the full utility ranking, where this tariff sits at position 29 of 86.

The rest of the Nevada picture

The tariff is one layer. State taxes, incentives, clean-fuels programs, and the charging market shape the remainder — Tesla Supercharger ROI in Nevada covers them, and the US Supercharger Economics Map shows every US Supercharger over utility territories colored by this same effective-cost derivation.
