Dear Idaho Public Utilities Commission:
I am an Idaho Power customer and I support clean energy because we have the technology to
both provide power AND protect our home for future generations.

Dear Idaho Public Utilities Commission:
Thank you for the opportunity to comment on Idaho Power’s Integrated Resource Plan (IRP).
I am an Idaho Power customer, and I support clean energy because it protects air quality,combats climate change, supports energy independence, and is just plain good for Idaho’s
economy. I was happy to learn of Idaho Power's plan for early divestment from coal firedplants. However, I feel that Idaho Power needs to take more pro-active steps to replace this
energy source with clean, local solar energy. Idaho Power’s plan falls short because it does notaddress how (or whether) it will provide continued and increasing incentives that will promote
customer-owned generation of electricity, such as rooftop solar. Instead of investing inmethane gas plants and new transmission lines, Idaho Power should commit to specific, local
clean energy projects like the Jackpot Solar plant south of Twin Falls that will create jobs inIdaho. I am glad that Idaho Power has begun the transition to clean energy, but the transition
needs to accelerate if we are going to continue to enjoy our quality of life in Idaho.
