APPLICATION

Idaho Power Company (“Idaho Power” or “Company”), in accordance with Idaho
Code § 61-502 and Commission Rule of Procedure1 52, hereby respectfully makes
application to the Idaho Public Utilities Commission (“Commission”) for an order
authorizing Idaho Power to implement Fixed Cost Adjustment (“FCA”) rates for electric
service from June 1, 2024 through May 31, 2025, and to approve the Company’s
corresponding Schedule 54, Fixed Cost Adjustment. With this filing the Company
proposes a $10,575,831, or 1.44 percent, increase for Residential and Small General

APPLICATION - 2
Service customers. If the FCA is approved as filed, a typical residential customer using
950 kilowatt-hours per month will see an approximate $1.69 increase to their monthly bill.
In support of this Application, Idaho Power represents as follows:
I. BACKGROUND
1. Idaho Power and the Commission have long agreed that promotion of cost-
effective energy efficiency and demand-side management (“DSM”) “is an integral part of
least-cost electric service.”2 To this end, the Company considers energy efficiency and
demand response to be an important and necessary part of a balanced approach to
meeting system energy needs and endeavors to provide customers with programs and
knowledge through its DSM programs to help them use electricity wisely.
2. In 2023, Idaho Power achieved 139,683 megawatt-hours (“MWh”) of
incremental annual energy efficiency savings on a system-wide basis, which exceeded
the economic technical achievable potential included in the 2023 IRP. The 2023 savings
represent enough energy to power approximately 12,200 average homes in Idaho
Power’s service area for one year. These energy savings are more particularly described
in the 2023 DSM Annual Report filed in Case No. IPC-E-24-11. The Company also invests
in significant DSM educational and awareness activities and marketing efforts, which are
also described in the DSM Annual Report, that are likely to result in energy savings
experienced by customers but are not quantified or claimed as part of Idaho Power’s
annual savings.
3. Unfortunately, traditional rate design that recovers fixed costs through each
kilowatt-hour (“kWh”) sold discourages utilities from reducing their sales volumes through

Power Company, Case No. IPC-E-04-15, Order No. 30267, p. 13 (Mar. 12, 2007).

APPLICATION - 3
investment in energy efficiency and DSM. The development of the FCA was driven by a
desire to remove the inherent financial disincentives that exist when the Company invests
in DSM resources.
4. Desiring to encourage investments in cost-effective energy efficiency
despite the impediments, the Commission recognized that “opportunities exist[ed] for
improvements in operating efficiency that would benefit the Company shareholders and
its customers” and opened an investigation in Case No. IPC-E-04-15 to consider options
for a performance-based mechanism that adjusts revenues when annual energy
consumption is either above or below normal.3 The FCA mechanism is the collaborative
result of that case.
5. In Order No. 30267,4 the Commission approved a stipulation for the
implementation of a three-year FCA pilot program applicable to Residential Service
(Schedules 1, 3, 4, and 5) and Small General Service (Schedule 7) customers.
6. On October 1, 2009, the Company filed an application seeking authority to
convert Schedule 54, the FCA tariff schedule, from a pilot program to an ongoing,
permanent program, asserting that the mechanism had fulfilled the purpose of removing
disincentives to energy efficiency investments undertaken by the Company to the benefit
of its customers.5 At that time, however, the Commission found it was too early to
determine whether the objectives of the FCA were being met and denied Idaho Power’s
request as a result. Instead, it extended the pilot program for an additional two-year
period.6

APPLICATION - 4
7. During the fifth year of the pilot program, the Company filed another
application seeking authority to convert the FCA to an ongoing, permanent program.7 This
time the Commission approved the Company’s request to convert the FCA to a
permanent program for the Residential and Small General Service customers, and though
it ultimately directed that the FCA mechanism continue with its then-existing methodology,
it also noted that it would continue to review the FCA to ensure its ongoing effectiveness.8
8. The Commission subsequently opened another docket to re-evaluate the
FCA mechanism, Case No. IPC-E-14-17, ultimately approving a settlement stipulation
that changed the methodology to calculate the level of actual fixed costs recovered used
to determine the FCA.9 The modification to the calculation of the actual level of fixed costs
recovered replaced weather-normalized billed sales with actual billed sales and began
with the determination of the 2015 FCA.
9. More recently, the Commission approved, at the Company’s request,
another modification to the FCA mechanism that instituted separate and reduced fixed
cost tracking and recovery for new Residential and Small General Service customers
added to the Company’s system starting January 1, 2022.10 Through this modification,
the authorized level of fixed cost recovery for new customers excludes generation and
transmission-related fixed costs but continues to include distribution and other customer-
related fixed costs. The approved modification was implemented beginning with the
determination of the 2022 FCA deferral calculation.

APPLICATION - 5
II. THE FCA MECHANISM
10. The FCA mechanism enables Idaho Power to separate, or “decouple,” its
fixed cost revenues from its volumetric energy sales and provides symmetry through a
surcharge or credit when fixed cost recovery per customer, on an actual billed sales basis,
varies above or below a Commission-established base. In other words, the FCA provides
a “true-up” of the collection of fixed costs per customer to recover the difference between
the level of fixed costs recovered on an actual billed sales basis by the Company through
rates and the level of fixed costs authorized for recovery in the Company’s most recent,
applicable general rate case.
11. The FCA works identically for both the Residential and Small General
Service classes. For each class, the number of customers is multiplied by the fixed cost
per customer rate (“FCC”), which is established as part of determining the Company’s
authorized revenue requirement in its most recent general rate case. The product of this
calculation establishes the “authorized fixed cost recovery” amount. This authorized fixed
cost recovery amount is then compared to the amount of fixed costs actually recovered
by Idaho Power. To determine the “actual fixed costs recovered” amount, the Company
multiplies the actual billed sales for each class by the fixed cost per energy rate (“FCE”),
as established in the Company’s most recent applicable general rate case. The difference
between these two numbers (the “authorized fixed cost recovery” amount minus the
“actual fixed costs recovered” amount) is the fixed cost adjustment for each class.
12. As a result of Case No. IPC-E-21-39, the FCC and FCE are bifurcated for
new and existing customers, with new customer components labeled as “FCC-Dist” and
“FCE-Dist,” and the differences between authorized and actual fixed cost recovery are
calculated independently for existing and new customers in order to determine the total

APPLICATION - 6
FCA deferral. The 2023 FCA deferral is recovered through a single FCA rate applicable
to all Residential customers, new and existing, and a single FCA rate applicable to all
Small General Service customers.
III. THE 2023 FCA AND
PROPOSED 2024-2025 FCA RATE ADJUSTMENT

13. In this filing, the Company is requesting recovery of the 2023 FCA balance
and approval of the corresponding rates. The determination of the FCA deferral balance
and corresponding rates are described in the Direct Testimony of Grant T. Anderson
(“Anderson Testimony”) filed contemporaneously with this Application.
14. As shown on Exhibit No. 4 of the Anderson Testimony, the proposed FCA
is $35,484,196.77 for the Residential class and $1,297,614.62 for the Small General
Service class, for a total amount of $36,781,811.39, which is more than the current FCA
deferral balance currently collected in customers’ rates. Anderson Testimony at 14-17.
15. Accordingly, with this Application, Idaho Power is proposing a rate
adjustment for the Residential and Small General Service classes to allow for the
recovery of the fixed costs that were not recovered through actual billed energy charges
during the year. More specifically, based on the 2023 FCA deferral balance and the
Company’s forecasted energy sales for June 1, 2024, through May 31, 2025, the
Company is proposing an annual increase of $10,575,831, or 1.44 percent, from current
billed revenue for the affected customer classes. Anderson Testimony at 18 and Exhibit
No. 6. This increase equates to new FCA rates of 0.6182 cents per kWh for the
Residential class and 0.7638 cents per kWh for the Small General Service class.
Anderson Testimony at 16-17 and Exhibit No. 5.

APPLICATION - 7
16. Idaho Power requests that the new FCA rates become effective on June 1,
2024, coincident with the Company’s annual Power Cost Adjustment, and that the FCA
rates remain in effect until May 31, 2025.
17. The proposed FCA tariff (clean version), Schedule 54, is attached hereto as
Attachment 1 to this Application. The Schedule 54 tariff in legislative format is attached
hereto as Attachment 2.
IV. MODIFIED PROCEDURE
18. Idaho Power believes that a technical hearing is not necessary to consider
the issues presented herein and respectfully requests that this Application be processed
under Modified Procedure; i.e., by written submissions rather than by hearing. RP 201, et
seq. The Company has, however, contemporaneously filed the Anderson Testimony and
stands ready to present its testimony and support the Application if the Commission
determines that a technical hearing is required.
V. COMMUNICATIONS AND SERVICE OF PLEADINGS
19. In conformance with RP 125, this Application will be brought to the attention
of Idaho Power’s customers by means of both a press release to media in the Company’s
service area and a customer notice distributed in customers’ bills, both of which
accompany this filing as Attachment 3. The customer notice will be distributed over the
course of the Company’s current billing cycles, with the last notice being sent on or about
April 26, 2024. Idaho Power will also keep its Application, testimony, and exhibits open
for public inspection at its offices throughout the state of Idaho. Idaho Power believes the
above procedures satisfy the Rules of Practice and Procedure of this Commission;
however, the Company will, in the alternative, bring the Application to the attention of its
affected customers through any other means directed by this Commission.

VI. REQUEST FOR RELIEF
21. Idaho Power respectfully requests that the Commission issue an order: (1)
authorizing that this matter be processed by Modified Procedure and (2) authorizing Idaho
Power to implement Fixed Cost Adjustment rates for electric service from June 1, 2024,
through May 31, 2025, of 0.6182 cents per kWh for the Residential classes, and 0.7638
cents per kWh for the Small General Service classes as described above and in the
Anderson Testimony and Exhibits. If approved, the 2024–2025 FCA rates will result in an
increase to annual billed revenue for the Residential and Small General Service classes
of $10,575,831, or 1.44 percent, effective June 1, 2024.

PRESS RELEASE AND CUSTOMER NOTICE

Idaho Power Files Annual Fixed Cost Adjustment

Idaho Power has filed the first of two annual cost adjustments with the Idaho Public Utilities
Commission (IPUC). This year’s Fixed Cost Adjustment (FCA) requests an increase of $10.6 million,
or 1.44%, for residential and small general service customers in Idaho.
If the FCA proposal is approved as filed, a typical residential customer using 950 kilowatt-hours per
month would see about a $1.69 increase to their monthly bill beginning June 1. However, the final
impact to customer bills won’t be known until a second annual adjustment, the Power Cost Adjustment
(PCA), is filed in April.

Small General
Service
Overall Change
FCA $10.6 1.44% 1.39% 1.44%

The FCA adjusts prices up or down based on changes in energy use per customer during the prior
year. It is a true-up mechanism that separates energy sales from revenue to remove financial
disincentives for Idaho Power to invest in demand-side management, which can contribute to use per
customer declining.
In 2023, Idaho Power’s energy efficiency programs saved 139,683 megawatt hours — enough energy to
power about 12,200 average-sized homes for a year. Idaho Power values demand-side management,
energy efficiency and education programs, and the FCA allows the company to provide these programs
to residential and small general service customers without negative financial impacts.
The FCA allows Idaho Power to recover an IPUC-authorized level of fixed costs — costs associated with
things like generation plants, power lines, and substations — per customer. If the company collects less
than the authorized fixed-cost amount, it can collect the difference through a surcharge. If the company
collects more than the authorized amount, it refunds the difference to customers through a credit.
Opportunities for Public Review
Idaho Power’s filing is subject to public review and approval by the IPUC. Copies of the application are
available to the public at the IPUC offices (11331 W. Chinden Blvd. Building 8, Suite 201-A, Boise, ID
