IN THE MATTER OF IDAHO POWER )
COMPANY'S APPLICATION FOR ) CASE NO. IPC-E-24-44
APPROVAL OF SPECIAL CONTRACT AND )
TARIFF SCHEDULE 28 TO PROVIDE ) APPLICATION
ELECTRIC SERVICE TO MICRON IDAHO )
SEMICONDUCTOR MANUFACTURING )
(TRITON) LLC. )
Idaho Power Company ("Idaho Power" or "Company"), in accordance with RP 52
and Idaho Code §§ 61-502 and 61-503, hereby requests that the Idaho Public Utilities
Commission ("Commission") issue an order approving the Special Contract for electric
service between Idaho Power and Micron Idaho Semiconductor Manufacturing (Triton)
LLC ("Micron") for Micron's new memory manufacturing fabrication complex ("Micron
FAB"), and rates proposed in tariff Schedule 28. In support of this Application, Idaho
Power represents as follows:
I. BACKGROUND
1. The Commission has broad authority to regulate and fix the rates and
charges assessed by Idaho Power. Idaho Code §§ 61-502, 61-503. Large Power Service
customers that receive service in excess of 20,000 kilowatts ("kW") are required to make
APPLICATION - 1
special contract arrangements with the Company. Idaho Power's Schedule 19.E Large
Power Service customers between 10,000 kW and 20,000 kW may optionally take service
under a special contract. Id. For rate setting purposes, "each special contract customer
is considered a separate class with different conditions and contract terms affecting their
rates..." Order No. 33038 at 11. Differentiation between classes of customers is
permissible when it is based on cost of service, quantity of electricity used, differences in
conditions of service, or the time, nature, and pattern of the customers' use.2
2. Micron is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Micron Technology, Inc., a Delaware
corporation ("Micron Technology"), which is an existing retail customer of Idaho Power
taking service under an existing Special Contract, Schedule 26, for its Research &
Development and other supporting operations served by the Micron substation and
DRAM substation. Micron Technology is expanding its Boise campus to include the new
memory manufacturing fab complex (the "Micron FAB") that will be served by the new
CHIP substation through distinct interconnection facilities and Point of Delivery with a
unique operating profile and contract demand. The aggregate power requirement at the
Micron FAB will exceed 20,000 kW and necessitates the establishment of this second
special contract arrangement.
3. Idaho Power and Micron have successfully negotiated the terms and
conditions of a Special Contract that is consistent with cost-based principles and
methodology included in previously approved electric service agreements but tailored to
See I.P.U.C. No. 29, Tariff No. 101, Schedule 19.

P.2d 350, 355 (1984).
APPLICATION - 2
fit the specific service requirements at the Micron FAB. The Micron FAB Special Contract
is also referred to herein as the Energy Services Agreement ("ESA"). A copy of the
executed ESA for Micron and Schedule 28, which contains the proposed rates for service
under the ESA, are attached to this Application as Attachment 1 and Attachment 2,
respectively, and subject to the Commission's approval.
4. Micron acknowledges that Idaho Power is in the process of expanding
system capacity and securing new resources in order to serve the loads requested at the
Micron FAB based on the annual peak demand levels projected by Micron and that Idaho
Power is incurring, and will incur, costs to serve the Micron FAB based on the reasonable
expectation that Micron will perform its obligations under the ESA.
II. SPECIAL CONTRACT TERMS AND PROVISIONS
Micron FAB Special Contract Overview
5. The Micron FAB ESA was executed on November 21, 2024, and is subject
to final regulatory approval. The Service Effective Date under Schedule 28 is applicable
beginning the earlier of (1) the first day of the month in the first month that the aggregate
power requirement at the Micron FAB exceeds 20,000 kW, or (2) June 1, 2026.
6. The parties agree that the Micron FAB ESA, Schedule 28, and the rates set
forth therein are subject to and expressly conditioned upon approval by the Commission.
The Micron FAB ESA shall become effective upon approval by the Commission of all
terms and provisions without change or condition and will continue until terminated as
provided in Section 3 of the ESA.
7. Pursuant to the ESA, Idaho Power agrees to furnish Micron's total
requirements for electric service and energy delivered to the Micron FAB facility. The
rates and charges for electrical power, energy, and other service provided by Idaho Power
APPLICATION - 3
to Micron pursuant to the ESA are identified by component in the proposed Schedule 28.3
Micron agrees to pay Idaho Power the sum of the components identified in the then-
current Schedule 28 for Idaho Power to provide electric service to the Micron FAB facility.
Transmission and Interconnection Facilities
8. Cost recovery for the initial construction for transmission and substation
facilities needed to serve the Micron FAB facility load is provided for in separate
Procurement and Construction Agreements, provided as Confidential Attachment 3 and
4, respectively, to this Application and incorporated herein by this reference.
9. Consistent with other primary-level service customers, Idaho Power will
retain ownership of the transmission and distribution substation facilities and the
responsibility for ongoing operating and maintenance costs up to the point of delivery at
34.5 kilovolts ("kV"). Micron will retain ownership of all facilities downstream from the point
of delivery and will be responsible for ongoing operating and maintenance of those
facilities.
Pricing Considerations and Elements
10. When determining rates for new special contract customers, Idaho Power
must account for a number of factors including, but not limited to, each customer's unique
needs, site-specific circumstances, infrastructure available at the time, and consideration
of the potential impact of the load to the operation, safety, and reliability of Idaho Power's
system.4 Special contract arrangements are highly customer and site-specific, and Idaho
Power determines rates for new special contract customers on a case-by-case basis.
3 Attachment 2 hereto.
4 See, e.g., In the Matter of the Application of Idaho Power Company for approval of a Special Contract
with J.R. Simplot Company, Case No. IPC-E-13-23, Order No. 33038 at 11-12 (May 19, 2014).
APPLICATION -4
11. Contract Demand. Contract Demand is defined in the ESA as the monthly
schedule of megawatts ("MW") Idaho Power has agreed to make available to the Micron
FAB facility based on its forecasted load, whether utilized or not. Micron and Idaho Power
agreed to include distinct provisions specific to: (1) the Micron FAB facility during the
expansion period ("Scheduled Ramp Contract Demand"), and (2) the Micron FAB facility
at steady state ("Embedded Contract Demand"). Micron anticipates an annual peak
demand at steady state of approximately 507 MW, beginning in 2031.
12. Minimum Monthly Billing Demand. Billing Demand is defined in the ESA as
"the kilowatts supplied to the Micron FAB during the coincident 15-consecutive-minute
period of maximum use during the monthly billing period, adjusted for power factor, as
measured by the metering equipment located at the Points of Delivery." The minimum
Billing Demand that will be charged to Micron during the monthly billing period (the
"Minimum Monthly Billing Demand") is defined in Section 5.5 of the ESA. During
expansion, the Minimum Monthly Billing Demand is informed by the Scheduled Ramp
Contract Demand and is subject to change as a result of any adjustments by Micron to
the Scheduled Ramp Contract Demand pursuant to the terms and conditions of the ESA.
13. Customer Safeguards. The Micron FAB ESA contains several provisions
intended to protect Idaho Power and its other retail customers from the potential risk of
financial harm in the event the load at the Micron FAB facility never fully materializes or
is materially delayed. These contractual provisions are contained in the ESA as follows:
14. Section 3, Termination and Termination Payment: The Termination
Payment ensures Micron and Micron Technology are liable for the remaining financial
obligation related to Idaho Power's commitment to make Contract Demand available.
• Section 5, Contract Demand and Minimum Monthly Billing Demand: In
APPLICATION - 5
recognition that Idaho Power is in the process of expanding its system
capacity and securing new resources in order to serve the loads requested
at the Micron FAB based on the annual peak demand levels projected by
Micron, it has agreed to Contract Demand and Minimum Billing Demand
provisions to ensure Micron will cover the incremental cost to serve the
Micron FAB.
• Section 6, Facilities for Delivery to Micron FAB: Micron and Idaho Power
have separately entered into agreements, pursuant to which Micron is
funding the construction of the necessary Interconnection Facilities to
accommodate its service request.
• Section 10, Security and Credit Support: Micron and Micron Technology
must maintain adequate credit support to cover any obligations under the
ESA.
15. Power Factor Adjustment. When the Power Factor at the Micron FAB facility
is less than 95 percent, as determined by measurement under actual load conditions,
Idaho Power will adjust the total Billing Demand by the ratio of the minimum power factor
to the actual power factor.
Pricing Structure
16. Proposed Pricing Methodology. With respect to the Micron FAB ESA, Idaho
Power evaluated the relevant circumstances to develop pricing that would reduce the
potential for cost-shifting and result in Micron fairly contributing to incremental system
costs necessary to serve their new load. As a result, Idaho Power proposes a pricing
structure that incorporates embedded cost-based demand rates, coupled with the
Minimum Billing Demand provisions described above, and marginal cost-based energy
APPLICATION - 6
rates, which collectively mitigate the upward pressure on existing customers' rates that
would otherwise occur due to the addition of the Micron FAB facility load.
17. The aggregate power requirement at the Micron FAB facility is priced based
on: (1) capacity cost per kilowatt, recovered through monthly Contract Demand and Billing
Demand charges, and (2) energy priced at a marginal cost-based rate, recovered through
the Energy Charge.
18. Demand Charges. To determine the Billing Demand charge, Idaho Power
relied on a cost-of-service methodology to allocate costs to the Micron FAB facility utilizing
Idaho Power's embedded capacity costs and the projected electrical requirements
provided by Micron. The foundation for these calculations was Idaho Power's most
recently Commission-reviewed class cost-of-service study from the 2023 General Rate
Case, Case No. IPC-E-23-11 ("2023 General Rate Case"), reflecting the final revenue
requirement approved in the 2023 General Rate Case. At a high level, costs were then
allocated to the Micron FAB facility according to projected loads provided by Micron. This
approach is consistent with previously approved ESAs.
19. Because the outcome of the Company's limited issue rate case (Case No.
IPC-E-24-07) is currently pending in front of the Commission, the Company proposes to
adjust the Billing Demand and Contract Demand charges contained in Schedule 28 to
reflect any changes based on the aggregate Special Contract percentage revenue
increase authorized by the Commission in Case No. IPC-E-24-07.
20. Marginal Cost-Based Energy Charge. The Company's system is currently
facing near-term energy constraints and it is expected that the incremental load will cause
an increase in the cost to provide energy to all customers. As such, the Company
proposes to price Micron's energy on a marginal cost basis as more fully set forth below.
APPLICATION - 7
21. The marginal cost-based Energy Charge is the per kilowatt-hour marginal
cost of energy based on the hourly simulation of the Company's power supply operations
under expected hydrologic conditions and forecast gas prices. Under this method, net
power supply expenses are first quantified using the Company's forecast load for the test
year, net of the forecast load priced on a marginal cost basis. Net power supply expenses
are then quantified under increased load, which is added in 100 megawatt increments,
and a per kilowatt-hour marginal cost rate is determined for each increment. The marginal
cost-based Energy Charge is then calculated using the weighted average marginal cost
rate of the expected load to be priced at marginal cost in the given test year.
22. The Energy Charge determined using this method, as set forth in proposed
Schedule 28 is $0.03684 per kilowatt-hour. This rate was developed based on the 2024-
2025 Power Cost Adjustment ("PCA") test year, which reflects expectations from April
2024 through March 2025, and is proposed to be in effect following Commission approval
through May 31, 2025.
23. The Company proposed method for determining the marginal cost-based
energy rate in the Micron FAB Special Contract is consistent with those principles
identified by Commission Staff as best practices that should be considered when
evaluating marginal pricing methodologies as set forth in the memo dated February 16,
2023, included as Attachment 5 to this Application.5
5 The memo memorializes the discussions between the Company and Staff regarding the basis for
marginal pricing of energy, which resulted from Staff's recommendation, adopted by the Commission, that
prior to developing the next general rate case filing the Company should "evaluate and compare other
methods for determining a marginal cost of energy." In the Matter of the Application of Idaho Power
Company for Authority to Establish a New Schedule to Serve Speculative High-Density Load Customers,
Case No. IPC-E-21-37, Order No. 35428 at 5-7 (Jun. 15, 2022).
APPLICATION - 8
24. To ensure the marginal energy price applied to Micron FAB's energy usage
keeps pace with conditions experienced on the Company's system, the Company
proposes to submit an annual update to the marginal cost-based energy price utilizing the
same method described in this Application. The annual update would be filed around the
time of the Company's annual PCA filing, with the updated marginal cost-based energy
price proposed to be effective June 1, consistent with PCA rates.6
Accountin_g Treatment.
25. As energy is priced on a marginal-cost basis, the Company proposes that
the PCA rate not apply to Micron's marginal cost-based energy sales, consistent with
treatment approved by the Commission in Order No. 35929.1
26. All costs of supplying power for marginal cost-based priced energy are
proposed to be included in the PCA and energy-based revenues from Micron would be
treated as surplus sales and an offset to power supply costs. Accordingly, Micron's
energy-based revenues would not be included as Idaho retail sales used to calculate the
sales-based adjustment in the PCA. The marginal cost-based energy is accounted for as
if it were an off-system sale. This PCA treatment is consistent with the approach for Block
2 energy sales in Brisbie LLC's ESA, Block 2 energy sales in Lamb Weston's ESA, and
Schedule 20, all of which include marginal cost-based energy rates.
27. After the scheduled ramp period ends, Micron has the option under Section
7.2 of the ESA to request Idaho Power to reevaluate the basis for Energy Charges. This
provision was negotiated to allow an "offramp" for the applicability of marginal cost-based

Schedules, Case No. IPC-E-24-15, Order No. 36201 (May 31, 2024).

APPLICATION - 9
energy prices, such that after the scheduled ramp, the Company could consider pricing
Micron FAB facility at its then embedded variable energy costs.
III. MODIFIED PROCEDURE
28. Idaho Power believes that a hearing is not necessary to consider the issue
presented herein and respectfully request that this Application be processed under
Modified Procedure, i.e., by written submissions rather than by hearing. RP 201, et seq.

V. REQUESTED RELIEF
30. The rates included in Attachment 2 reflect the cost of providing service to
the Micron FAB facility and were developed in accordance with the most current
Commission-reviewed cost information available. These rates will appropriately recover
the cost of providing service to the Micron FAB facility, while limiting the potential for cost
shifting between the Micron FAB ESA and the Company's other customer classes. These
rates are reasonable, consistent with past cost-of-service determinations, and in the
public interest.
APPLICATION - 10
31. Accordingly, as set forth more fully above, Idaho Power respectfully
requests the Commission issue an order approving: (1) the Micron FAB ESA, included as
Attachment 1; (2) the Contract Demand and Billing Demand charges set forth in Schedule
28, included as Attachment 2, adjusted to reflect the composite rate change authorized
for special contract customers in Case No. IPC-E-24-07; (3) the Energy Charge set forth
in Schedule 28 through May 31, 2024; and (4) authorizing the requested accounting
treatment of energy sales under the ESA.

SECTION 2. —TERM OF AGREEMENT
2.1 Term of Agreement. This Agreement shall become effective as of the Execution
Date, subject to Final Regulatory Approval pursuant to Section 14, and shall continue
in full force and effect until terminated in accordance with Section 3.
a. Service Effective Date. Service under Schedule 28 is applicable beginning the
earlier of: 1) the first day of the month in the first month that the aggregate
power requirement at the Micron FAB exceeds 20,000 kW, or 2) June 1, 2026
(the "Service Effective Date").
SECTION 3. —TERMINATION
3.1 Notice of Termination. Either Party to this Agreement shall have the right to
terminate this Agreement by delivering written notice, as set forth in Section 16.1,
of termination to the other Party. The notice of termination shall specify the effective
date of termination, which shall be no earlier than twelve (12) months after the date
of the notice. If both Parties give notice of termination, the earliest effective date will
prevail.
3.2 Termination for Cause. If a Party materially breaches this Agreement and the
material breach is not cured within thirty (30) days after the non-breaching Party
gives written notice to the breaching Party thereof, the non-breaching Party may, at
its option, terminate this Agreement by providing written notice to the breaching
Party designating the effective date of termination. Failure to pay in accordance with
this Agreement shall constitute a material breach.
3.3 Termination Payment. If this Agreement is terminated by Micron for any reason
including pursuant to Section 3.1 or as a result of Micron's material breach of this
Agreement pursuant to Section 3.2, then Micron shall pay to Idaho Power a
termination payment in accordance with the methodology contained in Exhibit 2 (a
"Termination Payment"). Each Party agrees and acknowledges that the damages
Micron FAB Special Contract Page 17
Docusign Envelope ID: 1704D256-4EA5-48C6-AFA7-3651B2BAEDAA
Idaho Power would incur due to the termination of this Agreement would be difficult
or impossible to predict with certainty and that it is impractical and difficult to assess
actual damages in the circumstances stated, and therefore the Termination Payment
as agreed to in this section is a fair and reasonable calculation of such damages and
does not represent a penalty. The Termination Payment shall be Idaho Power's sole
damages and Micron's sole liability for termination of this Agreement by Micron for
any reason including pursuant to Section 3.1 or by Idaho Power as a result of
Micron's material breach of this Agreement pursuant to Section 3.2; provided,
however, this Agreement shall not prevent either Party from recovering damages
resulting from any breach of this Agreement by the other Party that does not result
in a termination of this Agreement.
a. Payment of Termination Payment. Within thirty (30) Business Days after the
termination of the Agreement, Idaho Power shall submit to Micron an invoice
for the Termination Payment due to Idaho Power, if any, calculated pursuant to
Exhibit 2. Except to the extent the amount invoiced is subject to a good faith
dispute under Section 3.3(b), the Termination Payment shall be made by
Micron within fifteen (15) Business Days after receiving such invoice from Idaho
Power.
b. Disputes With Respect to Termination Payment. If Micron disputes Idaho
Power's calculation of the Termination Payment, in whole or in part, Micron
shall, within ten (10) Business Days after receipt of the Termination Payment
invoice from Idaho Power, provide to Idaho Power a detailed explanation of the
basis for such dispute, and the Parties shall use commercially reasonable
efforts to promptly resolve such dispute.
c. Use of Credit Support for Termination Payment. If Micron fails to pay the
Termination Payment within the time period set forth in Section 3.3(a), then
Idaho Power may, in addition to pursuing any and all other remedies available
at law or in equity, proceed against any Credit Support provided by Micron
Micron FAB Special Contract Page 18
Docusign Envelope ID: 1704D256-4EA5-48C6-AFA7-3651B2BAEDAA
pursuant to this Agreement, or any other collateral or security held by Idaho
Power in whatever form to satisfy, in whole or in part, the Termination Payment.
d. Survival. The provisions of this Section 3 shall survive the termination or
expiration of this Agreement.
SECTION 4. — SERVICES TO BE PROVIDED
4.1 Sale and Delivery of Energy. In accordance with Prudent Electrical Practices and
subject to the provisions of this Agreement and the continuing regulatory authority
of the IPUC and Idaho Power's General Rules and Regulations on file with the IPUC,
Idaho Power will furnish Micron's total requirements for electric power and energy
at the Micron FAB. Micron will not resell any portion of the power and energy
furnished under this Agreement.
4.2 Points of Delivery. Electric power and energy shall be delivered by Idaho Power to
the Micron FAB at the 34,500 volt transformer busses at Idaho Power's CHIP
substation.
4.3 Description of Electric Service. Idaho Power shall supply three-phase, 60 HZ
alternating current at nominal 34,500 volts, with a maximum steady state variation
of plus or minus five percent (5%) under normal system conditions. Consistent with
Prudent Electrical Practices, Idaho Power will operate within the capability of its
existing system to minimize voltage level fluctuations, the normal frequency variation
to be within plus or minus 0.05 HZ on a 60 HZ base.
SECTION 5. — CONTRACT DEMAND
5.1 Contract Demand. The levels of Contract Demand requested by Micron and made
available by Idaho Power will be subject to the following provisions described herein.
5.2 Contract Demand During Expansion; Scheduled Ramp Contract Demand. Beginning
on the Service Effective Date and continuing until October 1, 2030, Micron has
Micron FAB Special Contract Page 19
Docusign Envelope ID: 1704D256-4EA5-48C6-AFA7-3651B2BAEDAA
requested and Idaho Power has agreed to make available initial levels of Contract
Demand, whether utilized or not, based on Micron's load ramp projections, which is
the Scheduled Ramp Contract Demand set forth in Exhibit 3.
a. Micron's Adjustment of Scheduled Ramp Contact Demand After Execution
Date. Subject to the following schedule, Micron may increase or decrease the
Scheduled Ramp Contract Demand; provided, however, Scheduled Ramp
Contract Demand shall not increase or decrease more than 30 MW above or
below, as applicable, the prior year's Contract Demand. Idaho Power is unable
to accommodate changes to the Scheduled Ramp Contract Demand through
calendar year 2027, but subject to the limitations set forth in the previous
sentence, Micron may adjust the Scheduled Ramp Contract Demand for future
years as follows: (a) for calendar year 2028, by providing Idaho Power with
written notice by no later than January 1, 2025; and (b) for calendar years 2029
and 2030, by providing Idaho Power with written notice by no later than January
1, 2026.
5.3 Contract Demand After Expansion; Embedded Contract Demand. The Embedded
Contract Demand requested by Micron and made available by Idaho Power under
the terms of this Agreement shall be 474 MW during the Non-Summer Season and
507 MW during the Summer Season, whether utilized or not.
a. Changes to Embedded Contract Demand. Under the terms of this Agreement,
Micron may increase or decrease the Embedded Contract Demand applicable
to any Summer Season or Non-Summer Season in even increments of 500 kW
by providing written notice to Idaho Power at least twelve (12) months prior to
the applicable Summer Season or Non-Summer Season; provided, however,
that Micron shall not be allowed to increase or decrease its Embedded Contract
Demand applicable to any Summer Season or Non-Summer Season by more
than 30 MW compared to the prior Summer Season or Non-Summer Season,
as applicable, without the prior written approval of Idaho Power, which shall not
Micron FAB Special Contract Page 1 10
Docusign Envelope ID: 1704D256-4EA5-48C6-AFA7-3651B2BAEDAA
be unreasonably withheld, and in no event may Micron increase the Embedded
Contract Demand to above 507 MW. Increases to the Embedded Contract
Demand will be subject to the availability of adequate capacity in Idaho Power's
facilities to provide the requested service.
5.4 Excess Demand. The availability of power in excess of the Contract Demand is not
guaranteed, and if the Billing Demand at the Micron FAB exceeds Contract Demand,
Idaho Power may curtail service to the Micron FAB. Idaho Power reserves the right
to install, at any time, at Micron's expense, any device necessary to protect Idaho
Power's system from damage which may be caused by Excess Demand at the
Micron FAB. Micron will be responsible for any damages to Idaho Power's system
or damages to third parties resulting from Excess Demand at the Micron FAB.
Micron agrees to use its best reasonable efforts to monitor its electric loads and to
advise Idaho Power as soon as possible of the potential for Excess Demand at the
Micron FAB. In the event Idaho Power decides, in its sole discretion, to make power
available to satisfy Excess Demand, it will be subject to the Daily Excess Demand
Charge specified in Schedule 28.
5.5 Minimum Monthly Billing Demand. The Minimum Monthly Billing Demand is based
on Micron's load ramp projections and coincident requested Contract Demand as
follows:
a. Minimum Monthly Billing Demand During Expansion. The initial Minimum
Monthly Billing Demand amounts based on the Scheduled Ramp Contract
Demand as of the Execution Date are set forth in Exhibit 3. If Micron makes an
adjustment to the Scheduled Ramp Contract Demand pursuant to Section
5.2(a), then effective as of the date of such adjustment (if such adjustment is
made on June 1 of a calendar year) or as of the next June 1 to occur (if the
adjustment is made on another day of a calendar year), the Minimum Monthly
Billing Demand shall automatically be revised to equal the adjusted Scheduled
Ramp Contract Demand and will be in effect for 12 months.
Micron FAB Special Contract Page 1 11
Docusign Envelope ID: 1704D256-4EA5-48C6-AFA7-3651B2BAEDAA
b. Minimum Monthly Billing Demand After Expansion. On the effective date of the
Embedded Contract Demand, the Minimum Monthly Billing Demand will
decrease by 30 MW from the then-effective Minimum Monthly Billing Demand.
Thereafter, Minimum Monthly Billing Demand will automatically reduce by 30
MW on June 1 of each year down to a minimum of 20 MW.
SECTION 6. — FACILITIES FOR DELIVERY TO MICRON FAB
6.1 Additional Facilities. The Parties acknowledge that they have separately entered into
an Amended and Restated Procurement Agreement dated February 1, 2023, and a
Construction Agreement dated May 16, 2023, pursuant to which Micron is paying
Idaho Power to construct the necessary Interconnection Facilities to accommodate
the Scheduled Ramp Contract Demand for the Micron FAB up to 416,200 kW.
Micron acknowledges that such Interconnection Facilities may not be sufficient to
supply the maximum Contract Demand of 507 MW. To the extent that additional
transmission and/or substation Interconnection Facilities are required to provide
service up to the maximum Contract Demand, special arrangements will be made in
a separate construction agreement between Micron and Idaho Power. If distribution
facilities downstream from substation equipment are required to supply the desired
service, those facilities will be provided under the terms and conditions of Rule H of
Idaho Power's General Rules and Regulations.
6.2 Operation and Maintenance. Idaho Power will operate and maintain Interconnection
Facilities necessary to provide service to the Micron FAB.
SECTION 7. — CHARGES TO BE PAID BY MICRON TO IDAHO POWER
7.1 Rates and Charges. The rates and charges for electrical power, energy, and other
services provided by Idaho Power to the Micron FAB will be identified by component
in Schedule 28. The total amount to be paid by Micron for electric service to the
Micron FAB will be the sum of the components identified on Schedule 28.
Micron FAB Special Contract Page 1 12
Docusign Envelope ID: 1704D256-4EA5-48C6-AFA7-3651B2BAEDAA
7.2 Marginal Cost-Based Energy Charges. Schedule 28 shall include the marginal cost-
based energy charges (the "Energy Charges"). The Energy Charges will be subject
to IPUC approval and Idaho Power shall provide IPUC with updated Energy Charges
annually. At Micron's request, Idaho Power agrees to reevaluate the basis for the
Energy Charges after the scheduled ramp period ends on September 30, 2030.
7.3 Power Factor. When the Micron FAB's adjusted power factor is less than 95 percent
during the 15-consecutive-minute period of maximum use for the monthly billing
period, Idaho Power will adjust the Billing Demand by multiplying the metered
demand in kilowatts by 0.95 and dividing that product by the adjusted power factor.
The reactive component of the adjusted power factor is comprised of the reactive
load plus the 230/34.5 kV transformer reactive losses reduced by the amount of
reactive correction paid for by Micron.
7.4 Billing and Metering Provisions. Billing Demand at the Micron FAB shall be
determined on a 15-minute coincidental basis and shall be billed accordingly.
a. Meter Equipment. Idaho Power will install and maintain suitable metering
equipment for each Point of Delivery so that coincident Billing Demand and
energy consumption can be determined for the billing period. Failure of the
meters or the telecommunication equipment or any inconsistency between
meters will be addressed promptly by Idaho Power.
b. Meter Errors. If a meter should fail to register correctly, and no reading can be
obtained from the back-up meter, estimated readings shall be used for
calculating consumption. In calculating the estimate, consideration will be given
to Micron's consumption in the hours immediately preceding the meter data
failure or for consumption in similar periods of other years and other relevant
facts. If Micron is due a credit or is subject to a charge as a result of a meter
error, then Idaho Power shall recalculate prior billings using the corrected
meter data and provide any such credit or additional charge on the next
monthly invoice.
Micron FAB Special Contract Page 1 13
Docusign Envelope ID: 1704D256-4EA5-48C6-AFA7-3651B2BAEDAA
SECTION 8. — PAYMENT OF BILLS

Schedule 28 as consideration for all services provided under this Agreement.
Invoices for payment for electric services shall be prepared and submitted by Idaho
Power to Micron monthly. All invoices or bills shall contain such data as may be
reasonably required to substantiate the billing, including statements of the meter
reading at the beginning and end of the billing period, meter constants, and
consumption during the billing period.
8.2 Payment Procedure. All bills or accounts for electric service owed by Micron to
Idaho Power hereunder shall be due and payable within fifteen (15) Business Days
following Micron's receipt of the monthly invoice from Idaho Power. Payment will be
made by electronic transfer of funds. Idaho Power shall provide Micron with current
ABA routing numbers and any other necessary instructions to facilitate the
electronic transfer of funds.
SECTION 9. —ACCESS TO PREMISES
9.1 Access to Premises. During the term of this Agreement, and for a reasonable period
following termination, Idaho Power shall have access to the Micron FAB premises at
all reasonable times with proper notice to Micron for the purposes of reading meters,
making installations, repairing, and removing Interconnection Facilities and Idaho
Power equipment, and for other proper purposes hereunder.

cause Micron Technology to deliver and maintain a guaranty in favor of Idaho Power
in substantially the form of Exhibit 4 attached hereto or such other form reasonably
acceptable to Idaho Power ("Guaranty").
Micron FAB Special Contract Page 1 14
Docusign Envelope ID: 1704D256-4EA5-48C6-AFA7-3651B2BAEDAA
10.2 Parent Guarantor Credit Trigger Event. If at any time, the Credit Rating of Micron
Technology is downgraded such that it is no longer a Creditworthy Entity, Idaho
Power may deliver notice thereof to Micron, and within ten (10) Business Days after
such notice, Micron shall deliver to Idaho Power replacement Credit Support in the
form of a Letter of Credit or cash (to be held in an escrow account in a form and
substance satisfactory to the Parties) ("Replacement Credit Support") in a capped
amount at any given time calculated in accordance with the methodology contained
in Exhibit 2 and updated pursuant to Section 10.2(a). Upon delivery of Replacement
Credit Support to Idaho Power, the Guaranty issued by Micron Technology pursuant
to Section 10.1 shall be deemed to be terminated and replaced by such
Replacement Credit Support; provided, however, that, if Micron Technology
subsequently becomes a Creditworthy Entity again, Micron may elect to terminate
the Replacement Credit Support and cause Micron Technology to deliver and
maintain a Guaranty in favor of Idaho Power, in which case Idaho Power shall return
the Replacement Credit Support to Micron within ten (10) Business Days of Idaho
Power's receipt of such Guaranty. Otherwise, Micron shall maintain such
Replacement Credit Support until Idaho Power is required to return the
Replacement Credit Support under Section 10.4.
a. Replacement Credit Support Updates. While Replacement Credit Support is in
place, Idaho Power will provide Micron with an updated amount based on the
methodology contained in Exhibit 2 on an annual basis. At Micron's written
request, with a minimum of 30 days' notice, Idaho Power will provide an interim
updated Replacement Credit Support amount based on the methodology
contained in Exhibit 2 no more frequently than every six (6) months.
10.3 Credit Support. Idaho Power is entitled to draw upon any Credit Support for any
damages or obligations to which Idaho Power is entitled to under this Agreement
including, but not limited to, the Termination Payment pursuant to Section 3, so long
as such damages or obligations have been invoiced to Micron and are past due. The
Micron FAB Special Contract Page 1 15
Docusign Envelope ID: 1704D256-4EA5-48C6-AFA7-3651B2BAEDAA
security contemplated under this section constitutes security for, but is not a
limitation of, Micron's obligations and liabilities under this Agreement.
10.4 Unused Credit Support. Idaho Power shall return the unused portion of any Credit
Support promptly after this Agreement is terminated and all obligations of Micron
arising under this Agreement, including any Termination Payment, have been paid
in full (whether directly or indirectly through set-off or netting) or fully performed.

TERMINATION PAYMENT/
REPLACEMENT CREDIT SUPPORT
The amount of the Termination Payment and/or Replacement Credit Support will be
calculated and delivered by Idaho Power to Micron pursuant to the terms and provisions
of Section 3 and Section 10, respectively. The inputs included in the calculation will be in
accordance with those in effect when the amount of the Termination Payment or
Replacement Credit support is delivered to Micron.
Part A: Summary of Calculation Methodology and Inputs
The calculation will quantify the net present value ("NPV") of estimated monthly charges
for (1) Contract Demand and (2) Billing Demand. The NPV discount rate used will be the
most recent IPUC-approved cost of debt for Idaho Power.
Monthly charges will be calculated using then-current rates pursuant to the IPUC-
approved tariff Schedule 28, or successor tariff schedule.
A monthly schedule for calculating monthly charges for both Contract Demand and Billing
Demand will be developed based on the number of months for which Micron's Contract
Demand would be greater than 20 MW if it were to exercise its right to decrease Contract
Demand pursuant to Sections 5.2 and 5.3.
The then-current Contract Demand will be used for the initial level of Contract Demand in
the monthly schedule and decrease pursuant to the limitations of Sections 5.2 and 5.3.
The then-current Minimum Monthly Billing Demand will be used for the initial level of
Billing Demand in the monthly schedule and decrease pursuant to the limitations of
Section 5.5.

(Continued)
Part B: Illustrative Example Calculation
For simplicity of this illustrative example, Embedded Contract Demand for both Summer
and Non-Summer Season at the effective date of termination or notice of Replacement
Credit Support is 480 MW and Minimum Monthly Billing Demand is 430 MW.
The term of the monthly schedule for quantifying monthly charges will be calculated with
the following formula:
Maximum Contract Demand
Term of Monthly Schedule (Years) _
30 MW Maximum Annual Reduction
480 MW
Term of Monthly Schedule (Years) _ 30 MW = 16 Years
For illustrative purposes of this example, the monthly Contract Demand charge is $3.50
per kW of Contract Demand and the monthly Billing Demand charge is $15.00 per kW of
Billing Demand. The following table is a simplified example of the calculation of the
monthly charges.

FORM OF GUARANTY
PARENT GUARANTY OF PAYMENT
THIS GUARANTY (the"Guaranty") is made as of the day of , 20 (the "Effective Date")
by Micron Technology, Inc., a corporation formed under the laws of the State of Delaware ("Guarantor")
to and in favor of Idaho Power Company, a corporation formed under the laws of the State of Idaho (the
"Beneficiary") in consideration of Beneficiary extending credit to Micron Idaho Semiconductor
Manufacturing (Triton) LLC, a limited liability company formed under the laws of the State of Delaware
("Obligor"),a wholly-owned subsidiary of Guarantor.
RECITALS:
A. Obligor and the Beneficiary have entered into or are anticipating entering into one or more contracts
involving the purchase, sale, transportation, exchange, or similar transactions with respect to electricity or
other energy commodities or energy related services (the "Transactions"). As part of the Transactions
between the Beneficiary and Obligor,the Beneficiary will be extending credit to the Obligor and Guarantor
wishes to provide this Guaranty to the Beneficiary as part of Obligor's consideration for such Transactions
and to induce the beneficiary to extend credit to the Obligor.
B. Guarantor has agreed to guarantee to the Beneficiary the proper performance,payment and discharge
of Obligor's Obligations(as defined in Section 1 hereof)by Guarantor.
IN CONSIDERATION OF the Beneficiary entering into the Transactions and other good and valuable
consideration,the receipt and sufficiency of which is hereby acknowledged by Guarantor, and intending
to be legally bound hereby, Guarantor covenants to, and agrees with,the Beneficiary as follows:
1. Guaranty. Guarantor hereby absolutely, unconditionally and irrevocably guarantees to the
Beneficiary and its successors and permitted assigns,the due,punctual and complete performance,payment
and discharge by Obligor of each and all of the performance, payment, indemnification and other
obligations and liabilities of any and every nature and kind whatsoever, whether now in existence or
hereafter arising, on the part of Obligor arising under the Transactions or otherwise in relation to the
transactions therein provided for(collectively,the"Obligor's Obligations").
2. Absolute Liability of Guarantor. The obligations of Guarantor hereunder are absolute, primary,
direct and independent obligations and are not subject to any right of set-off, recoupment or counterclaim
as against the Beneficiary. The Beneficiary is not required to exhaust its recourse against Obligor, or any
other Person, or any security it may hold, or to take any other action before being entitled to demand, by
written notice,payment or performance of Obligor's Obligations from Guarantor.

FORM OF GUARANTY
(Continued)
3. Payment; Currency. All sums payable by Guarantor hereunder shall be made in freely transferable
and immediately available funds and shall be made in the currency in which Obligor's Obligations were
due. If Obligor fails or refuses to pay any Obligor's Obligations when due and owing, Beneficiary may
make a demand upon Guarantor (hereinafter referred to as a "Payment Demand"). A Payment Demand
shall be in writing and shall specify in what manner and what amount Obligor has failed to pay and an
explanation of why such payment is due and owing, with a specific statement that Beneficiary is calling
upon Guarantor to pay under this Guarantee. A Payment Demand satisfying the foregoing requirements
shall be deemed sufficient notice to Guarantor that it must pay such amount and such payment shall be
made to Beneficiary by Guarantor within three business(3)days after receipt of such Payment Demand. A
single written Payment Demand shall be effective as to any specific default under the Transactions that is
capable of being cured by the payment of money during the continuance of such default and additional
written demands concerning such default shall not be required until such default is cured. Beneficiary shall
promptly return to Guarantor any amount paid by Guarantor if and to the extent a court of competent
jurisdiction (upon final appear thereof, if any) shall have determined that such Obligor's Obligation was
not payable by Guarantor.
4. No Release of Guarantor. Guarantor has no right either to terminate this Guaranty or to be released
or discharged from its obligations hereunder, which obligations shall not be affected, released nor
diminished for any reason whatsoever including:
(a) any release or discharge, in whole or in part, of Obligor's Obligations or any amendment or
supplement to or any modification of, assignment or termination, in whole or in part, the
Transactions;
(b) any extension or renewals of Obligor's Obligations or any change in the time, manner or place of
payment or performance of Obligor's Obligations or any course of dealing by the Beneficiary with
Obligor(including accepting any compromises from Obligor);
(c) the occurrence of any event of default by Obligor under the Transactions or otherwise in relation to
Obligor's Obligations;
(d) any taking (or any abstaining from taking) of any security or guarantee for the performance of
Obligor's Obligations, in whole or in part, or the perfecting (or the failing to perfect) any such
security;
(e) any exchange, surrender, substitution, loss or release of, or other dealing with, any security or
guarantee from time to time held by the Beneficiary for the performance of all or any part of Obligor's
Obligations;
(f) any waiver, consent or other action or inaction or any exercise or non-exercise of any right,remedy
or power with respect to Obligor's Obligations;
(g) any merger, amalgamation or consolidation of Obligor into or with any other Person or any change
in the corporate existence, financial condition, constitution, name, structure, business, control or
ownership of Obligor;
(h) any bankruptcy, winding-up, liquidation, dissolution, insolvency, reorganization or other similar
proceeding affecting Obligor or its assets or any release, stay or discharge of any Obligor's
Obligations resulting therefrom;

(Continued)
(i) any invalidity,illegality,irregularity or unenforceability for any reason of the Transactions,Obligor's
Obligations or any part thereof as regards Obligor;
(j) any provision of applicable Laws purporting to prohibit the payment by Obligor or Guarantor of any
amount payable by Obligor in connection with Obligor's Obligations;
(k) any force majeure (other than a force majeure which,pursuant to the Transactions, relieves Obligor
of liability for the performance of any Obligor's Obligations);
(1) any lack or limitation of power, incapacity or disability on the part of Obligor to enter into the
Transactions or of its directors, partners or agents or any other irregularity, defect or informality on
the part of Obligor in relation to Obligor's Obligations; and
(m) any other Laws or other circumstances or matters that might otherwise constitute a legal or equitable
discharge or release of a surety or guarantor.
5. Waiver of Notice&Defences. Guarantor hereby waives: (a)diligence,presentment,protest,demand
for payment, notice of dishonour or non-payment, notice of acceptance of this Guaranty and any other
notice not expressly granted to Guarantor by this Guaranty; and(b)all defences(legal or equitable)which,
if asserted,would diminish the liability of Guarantor under this Guaranty.
6. No Subrogation against Obligor. Until all obligations of Guarantor under this Guaranty are
discharged: (a) Guarantor shall not assert against Obligor any claim that Guarantor now has or may
hereafter have against Obligor in connection with this Guaranty or the performance by Guarantor of its
obligations hereunder(provided that, Guarantor may assert any such claim if required due to the imminent
expiry of an applicable limitation period or otherwise to preserve such claim but only to the extent required
to preserve such claim);(b)the Beneficiary shall not be subrogated to any of Guarantor's rights in Obligor's
Obligations; and (c) Guarantor agrees that it shall not exercise any rights of subrogation, reimbursement,
contribution or indemnity from Obligor with respect to this Guaranty to the extent the exercise of such
rights would be reasonably likely to impair the ability of Obligor to perform Obligor's Obligations.
7. Continuing Guaranty. This Guaranty is a continuing guarantee and,in the case of each of Obligor's
Obligations requiring the payment of monies,this Guaranty applies to and secures any ultimate balance due
or remaining due to the Beneficiary; and if, at any time, all or any part of any monies paid previously
applied by the Beneficiary to any Obligor Obligation is or must be rescinded or returned by the Beneficiary
for any reason whatsoever,such Obligor Obligation will,for the purposes hereof,to the extent such payment
is or must be rescinded or returned, be deemed to have continued in existence and this Guaranty shall
continue to be effective or be reinstated, as applicable, to such Obligor Obligation as if such application
had not been made.
8. Recovery Limitation under Transactions. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Guaranty all
limitations of liability (including requirements to file notice of claims prior to certain specified dates in
order to permit the same to be proceeded with) in favour of Obligor contained in the Transactions shall
apply equally to the liability of Guarantor under this Guaranty such that the Beneficiary shall not be entitled
to claim any liability against (or to receive any recovery from) Guarantor in excess of that which the
Beneficiary would have been entitled to recover from Obligor, in the aggregate, under the Transactions.
For purposes of clarity,the guaranteed obligations include to Obligor's Obligations as set forth in Section
1, together with all reasonable costs and expenses (including attorney's fees), if any, incurred by
Beneficiary in enforcing its rights under this Guaranty and under the Transactions.

MEMORANDUM ON MARGINAL COST METHOD
Memorandum
Date: 2/16/2023
From: Yao Yin, Utilities Analyst, Idaho Public Utilities Commission
To: Connie Aschenbrenner, Idaho Power Company
Subject: Investigation in Methods to determine Marginal Cost of Energy for Schedule 20.
Background
Order No. 35428 directed Idaho Power to evaluate and compare other methods for
determining a marginal cost of energy in addition to the use of Avoided Cost Averages in the
Integrated Resource Plan for setting the Schedule 20 energy rate, before the next general rate
case is developed and filed.
On January 31, 2013, Idaho Power met with Staff and discussed potential methods for
determining marginal cost of energy for the Schedule 20 energy rate and possibly for other
customers using marginal cost of energy for their energy rates. As a result of the meeting, Staff
agreed to develop some criteria for the Company to consider for developing a method.
Criteria
Although this list may not be exhaustive, Staff identified the following criteria that could
be used for determining the final method:
• The resources used in a model for determining marginal cost should be based on the
resources that are highly likely to exist during the rate period.
• The amount of incremental load used to determine the marginal cost rate should reflect
the amount of incremental load for the portion of load that will be priced at marginal cost.
• The marginal cost rates should have enough granularity to reflect time difference (e.g.
seasonality, time of day) value of Marginal Cost within the Company's system to provide
accurate price signals.
• If the marginal cost rates are based on a forecast, due to the lack of Marginal Costs being
trued-up in the PCA, they should be updated often enough that they reflect current
conditions or find a way to true up the marginal cost to actual marginal cost.
• If market costs are used, cost of transmission transaction and wheeling costs should be
included.
