LLC and Idaho Power for 100 MW of dispatchable energy storage capacity; and (3) Commission

resulting expenses associated with the PPA and ESA are prudently incurred for ratemaking

evidence, cross-examine witnesses, call and examine witnesses, and be heard in argument. The

other evidence in this proceeding.
