EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
Rocky Mountain Power is a multi-jurisdictional electric utility providing retail service to
customers in Utah, Idaho, and Wyoming. Rocky Mountain Power, a division of PacifiCorp, serves
approximately 86,874 customers in southeastern Idaho. Rocky Mountain Power acquires energy
efficiency and peak reduction resources as cost-effective alternatives to the acquisition of supply-
side resources.
PacifiCorp develops an integrated resource plan (IRP)1 as a means of balancing cost, risk,
uncertainty, supply reliability/deliverability and long-run public policy goals. The IRP presents a
framework of future actions to ensure that Rocky Mountain Power continues to provide reliable,
reasonably priced service to customers. Energy Efficiency and peak management opportunities
are incorporated into the IRP based on their availability, characteristics, and costs.2
Rocky Mountain Power employs external implementers to administer its energy efficiency
programs.3 Evaluations for each program are performed by independent external evaluators to
validate energy and demand savings derived from Rocky Mountain Power’s energy efficiency
programs.4
Rocky Mountain Power utilizes earned media, customer communications, education, and
outreach advertising as well as program specific marketing to communicate the value of energy
efficiency, provide information regarding low-cost, no-cost energy efficiency measures and to
educate customers on the availability of programs, services, and incentives.5
This report provides details on program results, activities, and expenditures of the Customer
Efficiency Tariff Rider (“Schedule 191”) as of the reporting period from January 1, 2022, through
December 31, 2022. Rocky Mountain Power on behalf of its customers, invested $7.7 million in
energy efficiency resource acquisitions during the reporting period. The investment yielded
approximately 16 megawatt hours (“MWh”) at generator in first-year energy savings, and
approximately 3 megawatts (“MW”) of capacity reduction from energy efficiency. Net benefits
based on the projected value of the energy savings over the life of the individual measures is
estimated at $1.4 million.6

LOW INCOME WEATHERIZATION
Program Description
The Low-Income Weatherization program provides energy efficiency services through a
partnership between the Company and local non-profit agencies to residential customers who
meet the income-eligible guidelines. Services are provided at no cost to the program participants.
The Company contracts with Eastern Idaho Community Action Partnership, Inc. (“EICAP”) and
Southeastern Idaho Community Action Agency (“SEICAA”) to provide services. The two agencies
receive federal funds allocated to and administered by the Idaho Department of Health and
Welfare (“IDHW”). Energy efficiency measures are installed in the homes of income eligible
households throughout the Company’s service territory by EICAP and SEICAA. The Company is
required to fund 85 percent of the cost of approved measures, pursuant to Commission Order
No. 32151. Under Advice No. 19-01 filed with Idaho Public Utilities Commission on January 16,
2019, Commission approved reimbursement of up to 100% of related installed costs of ductless
heat pumps, effective March 6, 2019. Agencies cover remaining costs with the funding received
by IDHW.
The Low-Income Weatherization program did not pass the PTRC with a cost benefit ratio of 0.95
for 2022. Under direction of Case No. GNR-E12-01, Low Income Weatherization program uses
the 10 percent conservation adder to the total resource cost test as its primary cost test. Cost-
effectiveness was partially affected by the use a single-family heat pump load profile in lieu of a
single-family cooling load profile to value the timing of energy savings. Several measures installed
through the program save energy throughout the year and not just the summer months,
therefore a heat pump load profile was selected to reflect energy savings in non-summer months.
Program Performance and Major Achievements in 2022
In 2022, the program achieved savings at site of 31,995
Number of homes served 27
Low Income Energy Conservation Education
Commission Order No. 32788 authorized the Company to fund the Low-Income Energy
Conservation Education with $25,000 annually. These education services are provided by EICAP
and SEICAA and target participants who receive Low Income Home Energy Assistance Program
(“LIHEAP”) funds. EICAP received $16,000 program year (“PY”) 2022 funding by the beginning of
their 2022/2023 LIHEAP program year. SEICAA did not request funds in 2022 as they had funds
from PY 2019 and PY 2021 to spend. SEICAA did not purchase kits as they had inventory of kits
purchased in 2019 to distribute. COVID-19 restrictions in operations slowed the distribution of
kits in PY 2020 and PY 2021 and increased in PY 2022

Page 11 of 18
Program Performance and Major Achievements in 2022
In 2022, the program achieved gross energy savings at site of 6,940,859 kWh.
Distributed incentives of $863,132.
To foster continued growth and utilization of the Wattsmart Business Vendor Network
(WBVN) and to increase customer satisfaction, the Company continued to employ full-
time outreach specialist dedicated to Idaho. This staff member provides an outreach
and support role to both vendors and customers interested in lighting as well as non-
lighting incentives.
In 2022, participating WBVN vendors continued receiving quarterly vendor
performance scorecards to provide timely feedback and encourage vendors to strive
to reach “Premium” status, which entitles qualifying vendors to improved visibility
and enhanced co-branding with Rocky Mountain Power. In 2022, there were three
premium status Wattsmart Business Vendors.
Several challenges presented themselves in 2022 leading to lower savings in the
Wattsmart Business Program than in years past.
o Significant supply chain disruptions had a negative effect on program energy
savings achievements.
o Due to supply timelines and project lifecycles, there were no large energy
savings projects completed in CY 2022 by the largest industrial customers
within the utility service territory. The Company expects this to be rectified in
2023 through focused outreach efforts began in 2022.

PEAK REDUCTION PROGRAMS
IRRIGATION LOAD CONTROL
Program Description
The irrigation load control program is offered to irrigation customers receiving electric service on
Schedule 10, Irrigation and Soil Drainage Pumping Power Service. Participants enroll in the
program with a third-party administrator and allow the curtailment of their electricity usage in
exchange for an incentive. Customer incentives are based on the site’s average available load
during load control program hours, adjusted by optouts or non-participation.
For most participants, their irrigation pumps are set up with a dispatchable two-way control
system giving Rocky Mountain Power control over their loads. Participants are notified four
hours ahead of control events and have the choice to opt-out of a limited number of dispatch
events per season.
The Irrigation Load control program passed the UCT cost test for 2022.
Program Performance and Major Achievements in 2022
There were 17 load control events initiated in 2022. There were 8 mandatory and 9
voluntary events.
The available load from the Irrigation Program can be utilized as reserves which provides
value to the program and benefits the customer.
Customers were given a 20% incentive bonus for participation in general.
Total customers participating in the program are 154, participation sites 1,091.
Total enrolled MW (Gross -at Gen) in 2022 is 169, maximum realized MW (at Gen) is 137.

WATTSMART BATTERIES
Program Performance and Major Achievements in 2022
• Rocky Mountain Power called upon the batteries for a total of 40 minutes which equates
to less than one battery cycle being used by Rocky Mountain Power during 2022.
• All customer batteries enrolled in the program prior to the called events responded.
There were no battery communication failures.
• New customer enrollment with batteries and new solar only installs during the same
period
• No commercial batteries were enrolled in the program during 2022.
• During 2022 there were 486 new customers interconnected with solar with seven
customers completing the enrollment process into the Wattsmart Battery Program. The
enrollment application for customer generation versus the enrollment in Wattsmart
Batteries is a separate unique process. It is expected many of the solar enrollments will
eventually enroll in the battery program.
Program Description
The Wattsmart Batteries program promotes and incentivizes the installation of qualified
individual batteries for system-wide integration and use for overall electric grid management.
Leveraging batteries has created an opportunity to maximize renewable energy for advancing a
sustainable electric grid. The batteries may be used for frequency response, peak load
management, transmission relief, daily load cycling, and other smart grid applications.
Batteries participating in the Wattsmart Battery Program are integrated within PacifiCorp’s
Energy Management System to provide real-time grid benefits
Eligible customers who participate in the program receive an enrollment incentive based on the
kW size of their battery and participation commitment, and ongoing annual incentives for
continued participation.
The battery program passed the UCT test using a 20-year NPV because the net benefits exceeded
the program costs, however, did not pass using the 1-year NPV. This is primarily due to the
program having high upfront incentives and limited participation during the first year of the
program.

COST EFFECTIVENESS
TOTAL COST EFFECTIVENESS RESULTS BY PORTFOLIO AND PROGRAM
Program cost effectiveness is performed using a Company specific modeling tool, created by a
third-party consultant. The tool is designed to incorporate PacifiCorp data and values such as
avoided costs, and generally follows the methodology specified in California’s Standard Practice
Manual. The analysis assesses the costs and benefits of DSM resource programs from different
stakeholder perspectives, including participants and non-participants, based on four tests
described in the Standard Practice Manual (TRC, UCT, PCT and RIM) as well as an additional fifth
test, PTRC.
Each of the cost-effectiveness tests for Rocky Mountain Power’s programs is outlined below. The
primary cost/benefit test observed in Idaho is the UCT for all programs other than the Low-
Income Weatherization program, which uses the PTRC.10
• PacifiCorp Total Resource Test (PTRC) is the total resource cost test with an additional
10% added to the net benefit side of the benefit/cost formula to account for non-
quantified environmental and non-energy benefits of conservation resources over supply
side alternatives.
• Total Resource Cost (TRC) Test considers the benefits and costs from the perspective of all
utility customers, comparing the total costs and benefits from both the utility and utility customer
perspectives.
• Utility Cost (UCT) Test also called the program administrator cost test, provides a benefit
to cost perspective from the utility only. The test compares the total utility cost incurred
to the benefit/value of the energy and capacity saved and contains no customer costs or
benefits in calculation of the ratio.
• Participant Cost Test (PCT) compares the portion of the resource paid directly by
participants to the savings realized by the participants.
• Ratepayer Impact Cost Test (RIM) examines the impact of energy efficiency expenditures
on non-participating ratepayers overall. Unlike supply-side investments, energy efficiency
programs reduce energy sales. Reduced sales typically lower revenue requirements while
putting near-term upward pressure on the rates remaining fixed costs are spread over
fewer kilowatt-hours.
10 Under direction of Case No. GNR-E-12-01, Low Income Weatherization program uses the 10 percent energy
conservation adder to the total resource cost test.
