Amid the national transition to more renewable sources of energy, Gov. Joe Lombardo’s economic development office has released an updated five-year strategic plan focused on expanding the state’s electric vehicle production, technological innovation and new infrastructure.

The plan is aimed at growing the state’s economy, including a push to make Nevada the “lithium capital of North America,” funding for new industrial parks (such as the Tahoe-Reno Industrial Center) and expanding the state’s broadband and 5G cell network infrastructure.

“Nevada is positioned to be ground zero for the energy transition and to play a key role in securing the energy independence and security of the United States,” the report authors wrote.
