Our 20-Year Plan

Idaho Power has begun work on its 2025 Integrated Resource Plan (IRP). The IRP examines the company’s projected need for additional electricity over the next 20 years and the resources that will best meet that need while balancing reliability, cost, environmental responsibility, efficiency and risk. The plan is updated every two years and includes a series of public meetings that help guide our planning process.

Idaho Power enlists the assistance of its customers in developing the IRP through an advisory panel — the Integrated Resource Plan Advisory Council (IRPAC).

The IRPAC includes major industrial customers, the environmental community, irrigation representatives, state and local elected officials, public utility commission representatives and other interested parties.

The IRPAC meets with Idaho Power regularly over a period of several months during the development of the company’s IRP. These meetings are public. The advisory council’s responsibilities include:

Representing the interests of Idaho Power’s more than 640,000 customers
Participating in open and active discussions of relevant issues, and
Working with Idaho Power to develop ways to engage the public in the IRP process.

Public Input

IRPAC meetings are virtual and open to the public. The next meeting is Dec. 12, at 9 a.m. (Mountain Time). Information about how to attend the meeting via Webex will be posted here several days in advance.
