Description: IDA IDACORP November 05, 2025
IDACORP, Inc. (NYSE:IDA) is a vertically integrated electric utility that generates, transmits, distributes, purchases, and sells electricity across southern Idaho and eastern Oregon.
The firm operates 17 hydroelectric plants, three natural-gas-fired units, and holds stakes in coal- and gas-fired steam generators in Wyoming and Nevada, supported by roughly 4,755 mi of high-voltage transmission lines, 23 step-up substations at generation sites, 21 transmission substations, 12 switching stations, 30 mixed-use substations, and 187 distribution substations serving about 29,660 mi of distribution lines. Battery storage capacity totals 908 MWh.
IDA serves approximately 649,000 retail customers, with a commercial-industrial mix that includes food processing, electronics, general manufacturing, agriculture, health care, government, education, and information-technology users. The utility also holds real-estate tax-credit investments, primarily in housing.
Key performance indicators from the most recent fiscal year (2023) show revenue of roughly $1.2 billion, operating cash flow of $150 million, and a net income margin near 6 %. Hydro generation accounts for about 70 % of total output, giving IDA a renewable-energy profile that exceeds the sector average of ~55 %. The company’s earnings are sensitive to water-availability trends in the Snake River basin and to Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC) rate cases, while regional electricity demand is expected to grow 1.5-2 % annually driven by population growth in Idaho and expanding data-center activity.
