Caring for Our Planet, Our Customers and Our Business
For decades, we have worked to protect our natural resources while ensuring our customers have reliable, affordable, clean power. We are building on this foundation by cultivating sound and enduring environmental, social, and governance (ESG) practices. Our ESG efforts help our company thrive and sustain a realistic path forward. As you’ll see below, our ESG efforts are ever-expanding.
More information can be found in our annual sustainability report and on our IDACORP website.
Environmental
Our goal: Provide 100% clean energy by 2045. Our hydropower base, path away from coal, and investment in transmission and clean energy are some of the ways we’re ensuring a sustainable future.
We invest in solar and wind, as well as offer customers other clean choices, such as purchasing renewable energy, participating in energy efficiency and investing in electric vehicles.
Safeguarding our wildlife and waterways is crucial. We are passionate about our work to restore rivers, protect fish and birds, and preserve the history of the places we call home.
Social
Through monetary and in-kind donations, hundreds of volunteers hours, and educating customers about energy, our company is dedicated to keeping the communities we serve thriving.
We are committed to an inclusive environment where all employees are valued and respected. We offer growth and incentive opportunities, retirement savings and work-life balance.
Our company has an unwavering commitment to safety, as shown by our impressive safety results. We’re also dedicated to educating the communities we serve on how they can stay safe.
Governance
We keep the lights on for our customers 99.9% of the time. We also look for projects that align with our reliable and affordable service while modernizing the grid, such as the B2H transmission line.
Our operational excellence benefits our owners and our customers. Our residential prices are nearly 20% below the national average, and businesses prices are nearly 30% below.
Idaho Power thrives under a diverse board of directors that believes in clear succession planning and strong risk oversight. We’re committed to delivering competitive returns and long-term value.
