How to Receive Your Bill Credit
After your switch is installed, we will update our billing records to add a $5 credit to your account on your July, August, September and October statements. For customers on Budget Pay, the credit will be applied to their Budget Pay calculation. Switches must be installed by the 15th of June, July or August in order to receive a credit on the following month’s bill.
The bill credits are only applicable to customers with an active Idaho Power account.
The program is only available within Idaho Power’s service area in the states of Idaho and Oregon where the equipment required to support A/C cycling has been installed and is operational.
