NEWS RELEASE: Commission Approves Asset Transfer Agreement Between Eastern Idaho
Electric Utility and City
BOISE (Aug. 11, 2026) — The Idaho Public Utilities Commission has approved an application
submitted by Rocky Mountain Power to transfer a customer's electric service and some
infrastructure to the city of Idaho Falls.
Approval of asset transfer agreements requires the acquiring utility to compensate the serving
utility for lost revenues and for the distribution infrastructure used to provide service to the
customer. Distribution infrastructure can include poles, wires, crossarms, insulators and cables.
The Commission issued an order approving the transfer agreement on Aug. 11,2026.It determined
that the transfer of the customer promotes the public interest, provides fair compensation for the
transferred assets without increasing rates for existing customers, and ensures the customer will
continue to receive reliable electric service from the city.
