NEWS RELEASE: Virtual public workshops will be held in early September on Idaho Power
application to increase rates.
BOISE(Aug. 27, 2024)—The Idaho Public Utilities Commission will host an online
workshop on Sept. 4 and Sept. 5 to share information on an application from Idaho Power
to change the rates it charges customers.
The utility said its application focuses on recovering costs associated with infrastructure
investments and labor expenses that were not included in the company's last rate case. If
the commission approves the request, the average Idaho residential customer using 950
kilowatt hours per month would see a monthly bill increase of approximately$7.48. The
commission can approve, deny or modify the application.
Public utilities commission staff will host an online workshop on Wednesday, Sept. 4, to
share information on the application and answer questions. The workshop will begin at
6:00 p.m. MDT and end at 9:00 p.m., or until all customer questions have been answered,
whichever comes first.
