⚖️ Court case
NV Energy sued data center developer Tract to stop a private arbitration about how much power the utility must supply, and when, to Tract's Peru Shelf and South Valley projects at the Tahoe Reno Industrial Center. NV Energy says these questions belong at the state utility commission so that other customers do not pay the costs. Tract says the contracts require arbitration.
