NEWS RELEASE: Customer hearing will be held Dec. 16 on eastern Idaho utility's application
to increase rates.
BOISE (Dec. 10, 2024)—The Idaho Public Utilities Commission will hold a customer hearing
on Monday, Dec. 16 in Pocatello to take testimony on a proposed settlement of an application
submitted by Rocky Mountain Power to increase rates.
Rocky Mountain Power applied for commission approval to increase rates for the average
residential customer by 17.9 percent, or about $19.90, in 2025 and an additional 5.3 percent, or
about$6.94, in 2026. However, Rocky Mountain Power recently filed a proposed settlement in
which it agreed to, among other things, a 16.8 percent increase to base rates in 2025, with no
additional rate increase in 2026. The commission can approve, deny or modify the proposed
settlement.
The customer hearing is being held to take testimony for the record. It will begin at 4:00 p.m.
and conclude at 7:00 p.m. or until all customer testimony has been taken, whichever comes first.
It will be at the Idaho Department of Fish and Game's Pocatello office, 1345 Barton Road,
Pocatello, ID 83204. In-person attendance is required to submit testimony. Those interested in
listening to the hearing without submitting testimony can do so by calling 1-415-655-0001 and
entering meeting number 2864 793 8995 when prompted.
