Solar panels at the Reno Events Center

Staff estimated a 280-kilowatt solar array would cost about $1.4 million with a 19-20 year payback and only about 5.2 percent ROI — well below the 10-15 percent target — and the RSCVA, not the City, pays the utility bills, so the City wouldn't directly benefit. The committee agreed it wasn't a good deal for now.
