3. When Idaho Winds renews its QF FESA at the expiration of its current one, the

direct and substantial interest in this proceeding in that the costs it pays to Idaho Power for
future Integration Charges will be affected by the outcome of this proceeding.

affecting its future rates paid for energy sales.
THEREFORE, Idaho Winds respectfully requests that the Commission grant its petition
to intervene with full party status in all Administrative Proceedings of this case.
