COMMENTS OF THE
COMMISSION STAFF
STAFF OF the Idaho Public Utilities Commission, by and through its Attorney of
record, Dayn Hardie, Deputy Attorney General, submits the following comments.
BACKGROUND
On May 24,20l9,Idaho Power Company ("Company") filed an Application requesting
the Commission's authority to (l) modify Schedde 15, Dusk To Dawn Customer Lighting, and
Schedule 41, Street Lighting Service, to allow for light-emitting diode ("LED") technology,
eliminate the option for new installations of Company-owned High Intensity Discharge ("HID")I
street lights and area lights going forward effective October 1,2019, and (2) close Option "B" of
Schedule 41, Customer-owned, Idaho Power-maintained systems as of September 30, 2023,
moving those customers to either Schedule 41 Option "A", which is Company-owned,
Company-maintained streetlight facilities, or Schedule 41 Option "C", which is Customer-

owned, Customer-maintained streetlight facilities.2 Application at I and 4. The proposed
modifications to Schedules 15 and 4l will allow the Company to transition from HID to LED
Company-owned lighting over a period of four (4) years, beginning October 1,2019. Id. at 4.
Additionally, the Company proposes to permanently eliminate Schedule 41's "Ornamental
Lighting"3 option. Id.
The proposed modifications to Schedules 15 and 41 will not affect the current rates set in
either Schedule. Id. at 5. Proposed tariff changes are shown in Attachments I and2 of the
Application.
As of March2}lg, there were 6,389 customers in Idaho taking service under Schedule
15;82 customers taking service under Schedule 41A;42 customers taking service under
Schedule 4lB; and 631 customers taking service under Schedule 41C. Schedule 41 customers are
primarily cities. Id. at3. The Company currently performs maintenance on approximately 9,742
fixtures owned by roughly 42 customers in Idaho under Option "B" of Schedule 41. Id.
STAFF REVIEW
Through its review, Staff believes that a decision to transition to LED lighting as
reflected in the Application is reasonable. Staff reviewed the prudency of the Company's
proposal and recommends that the Company be allowed to begin replacing Company-owned
HID lighting systems starting October l, 2019 per the Application. Staff also reviewed the
planned accounting treatment reflected in the Company's cost/benefit analysis, proposed changes
to Schedules I 5 and 4l , and communications provided to customers which Staff found all to be
reasonable.
Prudency Anal),sis
The Company provided two (2) types of analysis to support the cost-effectiveness of their
proposal. The first analysis shows the net present value revenue requirement difference between
the business-as-usual case of continuing to use HID lighting and transitioning to LED lighting.
2 Option "B" of Schedule 41 is for customer-owned, Company-maintained streetlight facilities. Application at2. lt
was closed to new customers as of January 1,2012, and currently has 42 customers. Id. Option "B" Schedule 41
customers are primarily cities. Id. at3.
3 Omamental Lighting was closed to new service after October 3 I , l98l , and through attrition, no customers remain
under the offering. Id. at 5.
2STAFF COMMENTS AUGUST 21,2019
The analysis showed a net benefit of $550 thousand through the first five (5) years, $990
thousand through the first ten (10) years, and $2.3 million over 20-years. The second analysis
shows the direct customer benefit of reduced energy cost by transitioning to more efficient LED
lighting which is estimated to be about $250 thousand per year on a levelized basis. Staff
reviewed the Company's workpapers and believes its analysis is reasonable and the transition to
LED lighting is prudent.
LEDs have a longer lifespan compared to HID lighting which directly reduces
maintenance cost. LEDs can last on average 100,000 hours or more. Based on expected
Company usage, LEDs will typically last 24.6 years compared to an average of 4.9 years for HID
bulbs currently in use. The extended life of LED lighting directly benefits customers by
reducing the number of times a service technician is dispatched to replace a failed lighting
element over time. The long lifespan will also contribute to about a30o/o reduction in the value
of inventory for maintenance and replacement purposes once fully transitioned to LEDs. The
reduction in inventory will also come as a result of reducing the number of catalog items held in
inventory from 59 to 1 1.
Initially, the Company may incur some obsolescence costs due to the transition to LEDs.
In order to remove HID lighting from inventory the Company will work with suppliers and
resellers to determine what unused inventory remaining after the change-out can be returned for
credit. Any unreturned or remaining materials will be sent to the Investment Recovery
department to sell to the open market. If the Company is unable to sell the remaining HID
lighting, the components will be recycled or properly disposed of as needed.
Customers will directly benefit from more efficient LED lighting by saving $250,000 per
year in net power cost. On a comparable lighting basis (i.e. lumens), LEDs use less than half the
energy of HID lights. This will reduce the amount of energy needed to serve Schedule 15 and 41
customers by 8,851 MWh per year. Although there is less energy required, LEDs provide more
uniform light coverage, with less glare and fewer dark spots, which improves lighting visibility.
Although Staff recommends that the Company move forward with its proposed
conversion based on information provided in this filing, a subsequent prudence determination of
the Company's implementation, actual capital expenditures and cost savings will be conducted
when the Company seeks recovery through base rates.
STAFF COMMENTS AUGUST 21,2079aJ
Accounting Treatment
Staff reviewed the Company's financial assertions related to this proposed LED
conversion, including the estimated annual revenue requirement of transitioning to LED lighting
fixtures, the estimated annual revenue requirement for Schedule 15 and 41 customers, the
estimated decrease in lighting inventory, and the estimated decrease in maintenance costs. Staff
also reviewed the Company's estimates for adding and disposing of plant in service, as well as
its depreciation and tax expenses.
Staff believes the Company's calculations and assumptions are reasonable, and the
Company's proposed accounting treatment for adding the LED lighting fixtures to plant in
service, and depreciating and removing the HID lighting fixtures appear to be proper. As stated
previously, the Company's actual accounting transactions and expenses will be subject to review
as part of the Company's next general rate case.
Customer Communication
Prior to filing its Application, Idaho Power identified 46 cities who take service under
Schedule 41, as the ones most impacted by the changes being proposed by the Company.a Idaho
Power met with city personnel from each of the cities identified to gather feedback. Some city
personnel shared lessons they had learned from their city's experience of having converted
customer-owned street lights to LED technology. Most of the customer feedback the cities had
received was in regard to the color temperature of the LED lights and the need for a shields to be
installed on the LED lights to prevent glare. Idaho Power took the feedback into consideration
when preparing its Application for the proposed LED change out plan.
Idaho Power created a webpage to explain the Company's proposal.s It was made
available the same day as the filing. In addition to general information about the proposal, the
webpage also includes a Company phone number for customers who would like to speak with an
energy advisor, as well as a link to the Application, IPUC website, and "Frequently Asked
Questions". The frequently asked questions addressed the following: 1) why Idaho Power was
requesting the change; 2) whether street light or area light account holders had the option to
a Of the 46 cities, 42 cities constitute all Schedule 4lB customers. As of May 24,2019 Schedule 4lA customers
totaled 82, 418 customers totaled 42, and 4 I C customers totaled 63 I .

decline the changeover to LED lighting; 3) when the changeover process would commence; 4)
the appearance of LED fixtures; 5) the brightness of LED lights compared to existing HID light
f,txtures; 6) the color temperature selected for the LED fixture; and 7) what impact the change
would have on a customer's electric bill.
Schedule 41 (Street Lighting Service)
Either by phone or in person, Idaho Power Company representatives personally contacted
all customers who are served under Option "A" or Option "B" of Schedule 4l to inform them of
the Company's filing and the charges they would be seeing. Additionally, a letter was mailed to
inform customers of the filing, how they would be impacted, and how to submit comments to the
Commission. The outreach process began around June 3 and ended on July 12,2019.
If Idaho Power's proposal is approved, the Company will again mail letters and have
Company representatives personally contact the impacted customers, informing them of the
Commission's decision and discuss the implementation plan.
Schedule l5 (Dusk to Dawn Customer Lighting)
A bill insert was mailed to all Schedule 15 customers informing them of Idaho Power's
filing and proposal. The first mailing began on June 24 and ended on July 9,2019. The bill
insert-contained a brief explanation of the Company's proposal, the web address to the
Commission website, the web address to Idaho Power's dedicated LED project webpage, and a
Company phone number for customers to call if they have questions. Additionally, at the time
the Company performs the LED replacement, a door hanger will be left at the premise informing
the customer that the lighting was replaced.
Customer Notification
Customers were given until August2l,2Ul9, to file comments. As of August20,2019,
no customer comments were filed.
