Comment:My husband Jim Keller and I,Susan Giannettino,write to express concerns about the continuing efforts by
Idaho Power to segregate (andthereby potentiallypenalize)those of us who,in good faith,paid to install solar panels on
our homes.We did this,paying $20,000 a couple years ago.We feed the energy we generate in to the Idaho Powergrid.We will not recover our investment in our lifetimes but we did the solar install because it was the right thing to do.
We support Idaho Power's efforts to conserve and have installed the most efficient electric appliances we can find.WealsosupportwhatshouldbeIdahoPower's goal;to diversify energy production and eventually eliminate coalgeneration.At some point,the hydro power we have enjoyed for years will become more expensive and even limited as
the issues associated with salmon and steelhead are addressed.
So,Idaho Power should embrace and encourage and even subsidize solar generation (and for that matter,wind).Please
continue to include us in this study and the IPUC process.
