Comment: "While I am excited to see Idaho Power plans to make strides toward more clean energy in Idaho, I am disappointed to see their plans to convert from coal to gas at the Jim
Bridger coal plant in Wyoming. A transition to gas prolongs Idaho Power's reliance on fossil fuels, is risky due to volatile gas prices, and does not allow for energy independence. It is bad
for hardworking Idaho customers, and bad for our environment. If Idaho Power's "purpose," which is written on their website ("Serving those who depend on us is at the center of
everything we do.") is correct, then Idaho Power would not transition to gas at the Bridger plant. "
