Please provide a list in Excel format showing all expenses charged to the electric and gas Demand
Side Management("DSM")riders in 2022 and 2023. Please include the following information for
each expense: the date, vendor, amount, program, task number, and account to which the charges
were assigned. Please include and identify any adjustments made in 2022 and 2023 to previously
incurred expenses. Please also separate all expenses by program. If any amounts were allocated to
multiple programs and/or jurisdictions, please describe the allocation method. Please identify
whether each expense is an incentive payment, purchase, service, labor/admin, materials, or any
other classification of expense.
RESPONSE:
Please see Staff-PR-0 I-Attachment A for the transaction detail for the Idaho electric and natural
gas DSM programs and measures during 2022—2023.
Expenses for Idaho's Energy Efficiency program are either directly assigned to a specific task or
allocated between two jurisdictions using the following project numbers:
• Idaho Electric: 03803300
• Idaho Nat Gas: 03803101
• WA/ID Electric: 09803400 (70% WA/30% ID)
• WA/ID Nat Gas: 09803401 (70% WA/30% ID)
Non-incentive expenditures are separated by sector (i.e., Low-Income, Residential,
Non-Residential) and are not categorized by program. Please see Staff-PR-01-Attachment B for a
listing of all task numbers used for Energy Efficiency programs.
Purchases, services, materials and labor generally fall under implementation costs unless they are
directly related to a specific initiative or program in which the costs are captured under a specific
task number(e.g. pilot programs).
Also included in Staff-PR-01-Attachment A is a list of the adjustments made during the 2022-2023
period. These adjustments include year-end accruals, year-end accrual reversals, and corrections
of errors.
