Idaho Power Files Annual Power Cost Adjustment
Idaho Power has filed the final piece of its annual spring cost adjustments with the Idaho Public Utilities Commission (IPUC). This year’s Power Cost Adjustment (PCA) calls for a price increase as a result of higher power costs related to natural gas and market prices, lower than expected hydro generation and a limited coal supply. Neither Idaho Power nor its shareholders receive any financial return from this filing — money collected is used solely to recover expenses associated with annual fluctuations in power supply costs. Idaho Power previously filed the Fixed Cost Adjustment (FCA) on March 15. If approved, the FCA and PCA rate changes will take effect June 1, and a typical Idaho residential customer will see an overall monthly increase of $11.06.

Idaho Power Files Annual Fixed Cost Adjustment
(sent to Idaho residential and small business customers)
Idaho Power has filed the first of two annual cost adjustments with the Idaho Public Utilities Commission. This year’s annual Fixed Cost Adjustment (FCA) requests a decrease of $10 million, or 1.56%, 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 $1.66 decrease 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.
