The first in a series of meetings leading up to Idaho Power’s next long-range energy plan will take place Thursday, Aug. 29.

Idaho Power and an advisory panel representing customer groups and regulators will meet online several times over the next year to discuss the utility’s 2025 Integrated Resource Plan (IRP), which will lay out the company’s preferred portfolio of energy resources to serve customers over the next 20 years.

Idaho Power develops a new plan every two years. The company enlists the help of its customers to create the IRP through the IRP Advisory Council (IRPAC), which includes representatives from public-interest groups, industry and agriculture, as well as state and local lawmakers, public utility commission staff, and other interested parties.

The first meeting will be an energy efficiency subcommittee that will discuss energy efficiency and potential deferral of transmission and distribution investments.

Background information and a link for attending via Webex, are available at idahopower.com/irp. Meetings begin at 9 a.m. Mountain Time.
