COMPANY FOR APPROVAL OF THE SECOND AMENDMENT TO THE
ENERGY SALES AGREEMENT WITH AMERICAN FALLS SOLAR II,
LLC FOR THE SALE AND PURCHASE OF ELECTRIC ENERGY; CASE
NO. IPC-E-22-20.
On June 14, 2022, Idaho Power Company (“Company”) filed an Application with the
Commission requesting approval of the Second Amendment to its Energy Sales Agreement
(“ESA”) with American Falls Solar II, LLC (“Seller”), who sells energy generated by the Seller’s
20 megawatt solar photovoltaic project (“Facility”) located in Power County, Idaho. The Facility
is a qualifying facility under the Public Utility Regulatory Policies Act of 1978.
The Second Amendment seeks to delete Section 6.2.2 of the ESA and replace it with a new

not otherwise change any obligations of the Parties set forth in the ESA.

Procedure establishing a 21-day public comment deadline and a 7-day Company reply deadline.
COMMISSION DECISION
