Immediately at the conclusion of the Solarize program, Idaho Power sought a rate change with the Idaho Public Utilities Commission. PRC responded by helping coordinate a public writing and speaking response that resulted in Idaho Power being told to study the value of distributed energy resources before making any further rate change proposal. Additionally, the Idaho PUC ruled that any existing distributed energy resources were granted the legacy net metering rate for the next 20 years, effectively protecting the investment Idahoans already made in clean energy - including the 82 installations through PRC’s Solarize Campaign.
