3. EnerNOC is a leading developer and provider of clean and intelligent power solutions to
commercial, institutional, and industrial customers, as well as electric power grid operators and
utilities. EnerNOC's technology-enabled demand response and energy management solutions
help optimize the balance of electric supply and demand. EnerNOC serves demand response
customers throughout the Northeastern United States, as well as Arizona, Australia, California,
Canada, Colorado, Florida, ldaho, New Mexico, New Zealand, Oregon, the Tennessee Valley,
Texas, Utah and the United Kingdom. EnerNOC maintains 39 full time employees in its Boise,
ldaho field office.
EnerNOC contracts with ldaho Power to manage the FlexPeak Management Program
("FlexPeak Program") pursuant to a February 23,2009 Demand Response Agreement
("Agreement") (as amended pursuant to Orders 31098 and 32805), under which ldaho Power
provides a voluntary demand response program for its large commercial and industrial
customers. On May 9,2OL3, the Commission issued Order No. 32805 implementing changes to
the FlexPeak Program for the 2013 season. The Agreement expires in February 2014.
EnerNOC also provides program implementation services for the the lrrigation Peak
Reward Program ("Peak Reward Program"), which provides irrigation customers with a financial
incentive for allowing ldaho Power to turn off their irrigation pumps during periods of high
system demand during summer months. This program was suspended for the 2013 season
pursuant to Order No. 32776.
Each of these programs serves ldaho Power customers in both Oregon and ldaho.
4. EnerNOC has a direct and substantial interest in this proceeding because EnerNOC manages the
FlexPeak Program and provides program implementation services for the Peak Rewards
Program, two of the three demand response programs being considered in this docket. The
outcome of this proceeding and the continuation or modification of ldaho Power's demand
response programs for 20L4 and beyond will have a direct affect on EnerNOC's future contracts
in ldaho.
5. EnerNOC intends to monitor the proceedings as a party and, if necessary, raise issues that are
appropriate to the proceeding. No other party can adequately address EnerNOC's interests in
this proceeding.
WHEREFORE, EnerNOC respectfully requests that the Commission grant this petition to lntervene
and authorize EnerNOC to participate in the above-entitled proceeding with the full rights of a
formal party.
