IPC-E-26-27 APPLICATION Idaho Power Company ("Idaho Power” or "Company"), respectfully applies to the Idaho Public Utilities Commission (“Commission”) pursuant to Idaho Code §§ 61-503 and 61-507 and Commission Rule of Procedure1 52, for authority to implement modifications to its Schedule 68, Interconnections to Customer Distributed Energy Resources (“Schedule 68”). Schedule 68 is the Company’s rules and procedures governing the interconnection of customer-owned distributed energy resources (“DERs”). As more fully set forth below, in response to stakeholder feedback and recent state legislation around 1 Hereinafter cited as RP APPLICATION - 2 portable solar systems, Idaho Power proposes certain modifications to Schedule 68 to allow for a streamlined registration process for residential and small general service DERs under a specified nameplate capacity and like-for-like inverter replacements. In support of this Application, Idaho Power represents as follows: I. BACKGROUND 1. Schedule 68. Under Idaho Power’s on-site generation service offerings, retail customers can choose to install their own DERs at their home or business to offset some or all of their electric needs. As part of Idaho Power’s on-site generation service offering, Schedule 68 lays out system requirements and interconnection processes for all customer-owned DERs. Currently, all customers wanting to install DERs must go through a full application process, which requires customers to pay a $100 application fee2 that covers some of the costs related to the Company’s work performed during the application process. This work includes feasibility studies and on-site inspections. 2. Portable Solar Systems. Portable solar systems are generation systems that plug into an electrical outlet and supply solar generated power directly to a customer’s home, thereby offsetting a portion of such home’s load. These systems operate in parallel with the utility’s system and excess generation can also be exported to the grid. Recently, there has been a growing movement across the United States to allow for electric utility customers to use these systems in their homes, expanding portable solar systems’ use beyond their historic off-grid recreational applications. However, the National Electric Code (“NEC”) does not currently allow for portable solar systems to safely interconnect 2 The Commission initially approved the $100 application fee in Order No. 32846 (IPC-E-12-27) when on- site generation interconnection rules were in Schedule 72. The Commission approved the $100 application in Schedule 68 in Order No. 34955 (IPC-E-20-30) when the Company proposed to create Schedule 68. APPLICATION - 3 to customer homes and the electric utility grid. Although Underwriters Laboratory (“UL”) standards, such as UL3700, published in December 2025, establish product safety requirements for plug-in and portable solar systems, the NEC does not currently recognize or provide installation requirements for these systems. Specifically, UL3700 standards include a new plug type, bi-directional ground fault circuit interrupters and other installation requirements to ensure these types of products do not create a fire or shock hazard. Consequently, a gap exists between product certification and code-compliant installation. Future NEC revisions may address this gap by establishing requirements for the safe installation and interconnection of plug-in solar technologies. 3. Recent State Legislation. In recent years, in response to lobbying by organizations with vested interests in portable solar systems, state governments across the United States have begun taking up and, in some cases, passing legislation allowing for these systems to be used in customers’ homes without the same level of oversight as traditional hardwired systems. Figure 1 below, from the Electric Power Research Institute, shows the movement portable solar legislation has had in each state as of April 2026. APPLICATION - 4 Figure 1: Portable Solar Legislation Progress in the U.S. As shown by Figure 1, during the 2026 Idaho Legislative Session, a bill was introduced in the House of Representatives to codify in state statute customers’ optional use of portable solar systems, though the bill did not move forward during the 2026 Legislative Session. 4. Idaho Power’s Concerns. With the recent push by lobbying organizations to have states pass legislation to allow for the use of portable solar systems, some manufacturers of these systems and media articles have suggested these systems are safe, legal, and code compliant. Idaho Power is concerned that these misleading communications may be creating customer confusion or uncertainty as to the status of portable solar systems in Idaho. Though portable solar systems are not currently allowed in permanent residences and businesses in Idaho, are not compliant with NEC code, and may pose safety risks to customers and Idaho Power’s system, the Company has found seven of these systems since May of 2026. The Company found these systems through APPLICATION - 5 its routine monitoring for reverse power flow on non-customer generation and meters. When the Company identifies this reverse power flow, it sends out field personnel to physically inspect the meter and look for unauthorized on-site generation systems. 5. Because portable solar systems operate in parallel with Idaho Power’s system and can export energy to the grid, the Company’s ability to verify their technical characteristics, assess grid impacts, and track their locations is critical to the Company’s ability to safely provide electric service and operate the electric system. II. PROPOSED CHANGES 6. The Company’s goal in proposing these changes to Schedule 68 is to proactively modify its tariff to ensure customers have a clear understanding of what requirements there are for systems to interconnect and the types of systems that currently meet these requirements. Additionally, the Company’s proposal is designed to improve customer experience, as well as encourage customers to notify the Company when installing on-site generation systems, regardless of the size and mobility of the system, so that the safety and operational concerns discussed above may be avoided. Once NEC requirements can be met, many portable solar systems would be eligible to interconnect to Idaho Power’s grid using the proposed registration process. 7. Idaho Power’s Proposed Changes to Schedule 68. The Company is proposing to add an optional, technology-neutral, and streamlined registration process within Schedule 68 (the “Optional Registration Process”), in addition to the current application process. Customers who wish to connect DERs in parallel with the Company’s system will have to go through either the current application process or the proposed Optional Registration Process. The Optional Registration Process is permitted for APPLICATION - 6 residential and small general service on-site generation customers whose aggregate nameplate capacity of system(s) does not exceed 400 watts at the point of interconnection. Systems eligible for the Optional Registration Process may consist of exporting or non-exporting inverter-based DERs that do not include an energy storage device. 8. The 400-watt limit of the Optional Registration Process is designed to ensure that the Company’s employees and equipment are protected while providing a simplified option for customers to connect smaller DERs. The 400-watt limit applied to service voltages in Idaho corresponds to the equivalent amperage output of the standard 800-watt limit for portable solar used in Germany, which has become a global leader in residential plug-in solar. Idaho Power will continue to monitor developments in DER technologies, applicable codes and standards, and evolving market conditions and, as warranted, may recommend future updates to Schedule 68, including revisions to the registration process eligibility threshold, to ensure the tariff remains aligned with safe, reliable, and customer-focused interconnection practices. 9. Registration Process Technical Requirements. For a customer’s system to be eligible for the Optional Registration Process, it must meet all local, state, and federal electric, building, and fire codes. Additionally, systems must be listed by UL or other recognized standards, that may include but are not limited to the most recent version of UL 1741 SB, Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers 1547, UL 3700 and UL 3141. Inverters used for systems interconnecting under the Optional Registration Process must also have anti-islanding functionality and meet the Smart Inverter standard outlined in Schedule 68. APPLICATION - 7 10. When a customer submits a registration form under the Optional Registration Process, they will list the make and model of the interconnecting system and self-attest that it meets Schedule 68’s requirements. Idaho Power will then review the information provided. The customer must confirm and comply with all local, state, and national electric, building, and fire code requirements and if any discrepancies exist in the customer’s registration form the Company will notify the customer of the discrepancy. Idaho Power’s approval of a customer’s system interconnecting under Schedule 68 does not transfer liability to the Company if the customer’s system is not in compliance with such requirements. 11. It is recommended, but not required, that systems interconnecting under the Optional Registration Process have disconnection equipment meeting the current requirements in Schedule 68. Disconnection equipment allows Idaho Power to disconnect the on-site generation system without disrupting electrical service to the customer’s premises. Absent disconnection equipment – and in the event a safety or operational risk necessitates disconnecting the on-site generation system – Idaho Power will have to disconnect electrical service to the customer’s premises. This practice will be clearly communicated with customers for their consideration. 12. Registration Process Customer Experience. Customers who seek to interconnect their systems under the Optional Registration Process will not be required to pay an application fee as the Company will not perform an on-site inspection or meter change. As such, there is not a need for Idaho Power to recover costs associated with these activities through the application fee. APPLICATION - 8 13. Under the Optional Registration Process, and pursuant to Rule H, New Service Attachments and Distribution Line Installations or Alterations, of the Company’s tariff, customers will remain responsible for the cost of any service wire, transformer, or distribution feeder upgrades identified as being necessary to safely interconnect their systems. The Company will confirm the availability of capacity or need for customer- funded system upgrades through the Optional Registration Process. 14. Customers who interconnect their systems under the Optional Registration Process will remain on their standard service schedule and their exports will not be eligible for compensation. If a customer wants to be compensated for their exports, they may elect to take service under the Company’s on-site generation service schedules and interconnect their systems in accordance with Schedule 68’s standard application process. 15. Additional Modifications to Schedule 68. To accommodate the Optional Registration Process, the Company is proposing several additional modifications to Schedule 68 so that customers using the existing application process or the Optional Registration Process will be subject to the same rules and procedures needed for the Company to maintain safety and reliability. This includes updates to Schedule 68’s disconnection equipment, system modifications, unauthorized installations and expansions, and unauthorized inadvertent exports sections. 16. The Company is also proposing to allow customers completing like-for-like inverter replacements to use the Optional Registration Process as opposed to the existing application process. A like-for-like inverter replacement is when a customer replaces an existing inverter with an inverter of the same make, model and capacity, without making APPLICATION - 9 any additional system modifications. Because like-for-like inverter replacements do not require a meter change or full inspection by the Company to be safely integrated with Idaho Power’s system, requiring that customers submit a full application and pay its associated cost is not necessary. Instead, the Company will verify a like-for-like inverter change through the Optional Registration Process. 17. Lastly, the Company is proposing to fix a few minor clerical errors it discovered in preparation of this Application. These changes are non-substantive and have been incorporated into both the clean and legislative versions of the proposed Schedule 68, included as Attachment 1 to this Application, alongside the revisions intended to implement the changes discussed above. 18. Additionally, because the changes necessary to implement the Optional Registration Process introduce pagination, numbering, and formatting revisions throughout Schedule 68, redline changes appear on every page of the tariff schedule. Although the substantive changes proposed by the Company are limited, the resulting redline document can create the appearance of more extensive changes than those proposed. Accordingly, the Company has prepared Attachment 2 to this Application to assist Commission Staff (“Staff”) and stakeholders in efficiently identifying and evaluating the substantive changes apart from the associated pagination, numbering, and formatting revisions. III. STAKEHOLDER INPUT 19. Throughout the past year, Idaho Power has collaborated with stakeholders to gain an understanding of the rapidly evolving technology discussed herein and to better assess how Idaho Power could be positioned to accommodate a streamlined registration APPLICATION - 10 process once the identified concerns have been addressed. Stakeholders Idaho Power met and corresponded with included a portable solar advocate and lobbying organization, parties that have historically intervened in Commission cases related to on-site generation, peer utilities, the Idaho State Fire Marshal, the Idaho State Electrical Code Board, and Staff. 20. Idaho Power believes the proposed Schedule 68 revisions will provide clarity and enhance customer experience while continuing to support the Company’s safe and reliable operation of the electric system. The Company notes that stakeholders were generally supportive of the changes proposed in this Application and expressed appreciation for the Company’s commitment to safety, reliability, and customer experience. IV. MODIFIED PROCEDURE 21. Idaho Power believes that a technical hearing is not necessary to consider the issues presented herein and respectfully requests that this Application be processed under Modified Procedure, i.e., by written submissions rather than by hearing. RP 201, et. seq. If, however, the Commission determines that a technical hearing is required, the Company stands ready to prepare and present its testimony in such hearing. V.

No. 30, Tariff No. 101 Original Sheet No. 68-16 IDAHO Issued by IDAHO POWER COMPANY Issued per Order No. Timothy E. Tatum, Vice President, Regulatory Affairs Effective – 1221 West Idaho Street, Boise, Idaho SCHEDULE 68 INTERCONNECTIONS TO CUSTOMER DISTRIBUTED ENERGY RESOURCES (Continued) SECTION 3: ADDITIONAL INTERCONNECTION REQUIREMENTS OF NON-EXPORTING SYSTEMS (Continued) NON-EXPORT CONTROL SYSTEM (Continued) a. Option 1: (“Advanced Functionality”): The use of an internal transfer relay, energy management system, or other customer facility hardware or software system(s) may be used to ensure power is never exported across the Interconnection Point. To ensure that Inadvertent Export of power is limited to acceptable levels, all of the following conditions must be met: (a) inverter-based DERs must utilize a Smart Inverter; (b) the DER must monitor the total Inadvertent Export; (c) the DER must disconnect from the Company’s distribution system or halt energy production within two seconds after the period of continuous Inadvertent Export exceeds 30 seconds; (d) the DER must enter a safe operating mode where Inadvertent Export will not occur as a result of a failure of the control or Smart Inverter system for more than 30 seconds, which results in loss of control signal, loss of control power or single component failure or related control sensing of the control circuitry. b. Option 2: (“Reverse Power Protection”): To ensure power is never exported, a reverse power relay protective function must be implemented at the Interconnection Point. The default setting for this Protection Equipment, when used, shall be 0.1% (export) of the DERs Total Nameplate Capacity, with a maximum 2.0 second time delay. c. Option 3: (“Minimum Power Protection”): To ensure at least a minimum amount of power is imported at all times (and, therefore, that power is not exported), an under-power protective function may be implemented at the Interconnection Point. The default setting for this non-export control system, when used, shall be 5% (import) of the DERs Total Nameplate Capacity, with a maximum two (2) second time delay. 2. Control System Failure: Where applicable, any failure of the Customer’s DER control system for 30 seconds or more, which includes, but is not limited to; the internal transfer relay, energy management system, or other Customer facility hardware or software system(s) intended to prevent the reverse power flow, shall cause the Customer’s DER to enter a safe operating mode whereby the production of energy from the Non-Export DER is autonomously limited to an amount that shall not cause Inadvertent Export to occur until such time that the Customer has reestablished real power output control of the non-export control system. UNAUTHORIZED INADVERTENT EXPORT Inadvertent Export exceeding three hours of the DER Total Nameplate Capacity in any 30-day period will be defined as unauthorized Inadvertent Export, and the following steps will be followed for Customers with Non-Exporting Systems: Idaho Power Company First Revised Sheet No. 68-17 Cancels I.P.U.C.

The Company will notify the Non-Export Customer Generator that their Customer Generator System has exceeded the Inadvertent Export limit. 2. After notification of Inadvertent Export, the following will occur: a. For Schedules 1,5, or 7, Non-Exporting Systems, the Customer Generator must immediately disconnect the DER until the issue(s) is resolved and rectify Inadvertent Export within 30 days after receipt of the notification by Idaho Power that the Non-Exporting System has exceeded the Inadvertent Export limit. If the Customer Generator has not rectified Inadvertent Export after 30 days, at the Customer’s election, one of the following actions will occur: i. The DER must be permanently disconnected from the Company’s system. A Customer Generator must complete the Customer Generator Interconnection Process before the Non-Exporting System can interconnect to the Company’s system; or, ii. The Customer may apply to take service as an Exporting System subject to the full requirement for exporting systems outlined in this Schedule and Schedules 6, or 8, as applicable. b. For Schedules other than Schedules 1, 5, or 7: i. Upon receipt of the notification by Idaho Power that the Customer Generator’s Non-Exporting System has exceeded the Inadvertent Export limit, the Customer Generator System disconnect will be placed in the open position until the issue that caused the export is remedied. A Company inspection will be required before the Non-Exporting System can interconnect to the Company’s system. 3. If it is determined, at the sole discretion of the Company, that unauthorized Inadvertent Export results in damage to equipment on the Company’s system, the Customer Generator will be responsible for all costs associated with replacing the Company’s damaged equipment and defend, indemnify, and reimburse the Company for liabilities or damages incurred by the Company for third-party claims arising out of the Customer Generator’s unauthorized Inadvertent Export.

Customer Generator Interconnection Agreement. The Customer Generator Interconnection Agreement (“CGIA”), will be offered to the Customer Generator following completion of the Study Phase. The CGIA will utilize the Uniform Customer Generator Interconnection Agreement template included in this schedule. INTERCONNECTION FACILITIES REQUIREMENTS DER 3 MVA or greater Total Nameplate Capacity will require additional Company-Furnished Protection, Metering, and communications Equipment. This equipment will be further defined in the CGIA Attachment 1. COST OF INTERCONNECTION FACILITIES The Customer Generator will pay all costs of interconnecting a DER to the Company’s system. Costs of interconnection include the costs of furnishing and constructing required Upgrades, which will be determined pursuant to Rule H. To the extent that additional facilities not provided for under Rule H, including transmission and/or substation facilities, are required to interconnect the requested Generation Facility, special arrangements will be made in a separate agreement between the Customer Generator and the Company. Each request for interconnection will go through the Customer Generator Interconnection Process. Throughout the Customer Generator Interconnection Process, the Company will periodically bill the Customer Generator for engineering costs incurred or obligated. Failure to pay an invoice within the time specified in the invoice will result in the suspension of work on the interconnection. Customer Generator can end the Customer Generator Interconnection Process at any time. If Customer Generator decides to end the Customer Generator Interconnection Process prior to completion, the Company will either refund any monies held for security that have not been spent or obligated, or issue an invoice to Customer Generator for costs incurred prior to cancellation.

To the extent that additional facilities not provided for under Rule H, including transmission and/or substation facilities, are required to interconnect the requested Generation Facility, special arrangements will be made in a separate agreement between the Customer Generator and the Company. Each request for interconnection will go through the Customer Generator Interconnection Process. Throughout the Customer Generator Interconnection Process, the Company will periodically bill the Customer Generator for engineering costs incurred or obligated. Failure to pay an invoice within the time specified in the invoice will result in the suspension of work on the interconnection. Customer Generator can end the Customer Generator Interconnection Process at any time. If Customer Generator decides to end the Customer Generator Interconnection Process prior to completion, the Company will either refund any monies held for security that have not been spent or obligated, or issue an invoice to Customer Generator for costs incurred prior to cancellation.
