(1) The number of ENERGY STAR Homes completed is based on the number of incentive payments
Idaho Power has issued during the period.
(2) The Wells Fargo Idaho Construction Report for the 1st half of 2007 was not available at the time of
this update. As a result, the estimate of total new homes is based on a combination of data from
the most recent Wells Fargo Idaho Construction Report dated March 2007 and Idaho Power
records of new residential service points added during the period.

which construction permits are issued in Idaho Power s service area in 2007..." Furthermore
under the pilot program , the company is subject to a penalty if the "ENERGY STAR Homes
Northwest program fails to reach a market share of 4.9%..." If the market share of homes
constructed under the ENERGY STAR Homes Northwest program in 2007 is at least 4.9% and is
