Senate Bill 204 requires the Public Utilities Commission of Nevada to investigate whether it should require utility companies to have energy storage targets. Storage is one way to deal with the variable nature of solar. Solar panels can capture energy from the sun, but the energy has to be used instantaneously. Storage technology can cache power to be used during hours that the sun's not shining.
