Our Rocky  Mountain Elk herd is continually tested for TB, Brucellosis and CWD.  Our elk are raised naturally without the use of growth hormones or antibiotics.  The elk are never feed-lotted, and are provided with a natural environment where they graze upon Idaho’s native grasses.

While Idaho Power already generates most of its electricity from renewable hydroelectric resources, the Green Power Program provides customers with an option to support additional “green” resources.

With the help of the Bonneville Environmental Foundation (BEF), Idaho Power taps into green energy supplies. BEF is an independent non-profit organization (not affiliated with the Bonneville Power Administration). The foundation is a broker to facilitate green energy transactions from Northwest resources that have been certified as Green-e compliant by the Center for Resource Solutions.

Electricity purchased through the Green Power Program is brought into the Northwest power supply grid from wherever the energy is produced. The grid acts like a power “pool” that combines all sources of electric energy, including green resources. Electricity brought to your home or business is drawn from this overall supply system.

While you’ll see no difference in how you receive your power, as a program participant you will be supporting the environment and increasing generation of renewable energy.
