BOISE (July 31, 2025)—The Idaho Public Utilities Commission will hold a technical hearing in late October on an application from Idaho Power seeking commission approval of a special contract between the utility and Micron Idaho Semiconductor Manufacturing. Idaho Power is seeking approval of the contract to provide electric service to a new memory manufacturing fabrication complex. Large power service customers that receive electric service in excess of 20,000 kilowatts are required to make special contract arrangements with Idaho Power. Large power service customers between 10,000 kilowatts and 20,000 kilowatts may optionally take service under a special contract. The contracts are intended to ensure the costs associated with serving the customers are incorporated into the rates they pay. Technical hearings are held when a utility's application may be more significant to customers or present complex issues. Parties to a case cross examine witnesses and submit testimony during the hearings. The hearing will be held on Tuesday, Oct. 28, at the commission's offices, 11331 W. Chinden Blvd., Building 8, Suite 201-A, Boise, ID 83714.
