Comment: "These are my comments on changing the current Idaho Power VODER Study: Wepurchased solar panels a year ago to help our environment and to do our part about Global
Warming. I request that the Commission should NOT impose on-peak/off-peak rates onexports by self-generators unless Idaho Power also allows customers access to on-peak rates
for their consumption. It is very unfair to impose on-peak/off-peak credit rates on the energyone exports when there is no correlating on-peak/off-peak rates for the energy consumers use.
I request a fair financial value be assigned to the renewable energy provided by customers.This is a resource to Idaho Power. Currently Idaho Power sells renewable energy at a premium
to customers (Green Power Program). Idaho Power can avoid costs by sourcing its greenpower from customers and these very real avoidable costs should not be omitted from the
study. I Finally, customers should have the option to sell the power they generate. ManyIdahoans want to purchase and encourage local and cost effective green energy. We clearly
provide additional renewable energy with our solar panels. Thank you for listening to mycomments. Kathy Belknap "
