IDACORP, Inc. is a holding company whose primary subsidiary operates a vertically integrated electric utility serving approximately 664,000 retail customers across southern Idaho and eastern Oregon. The companys generation portfolio is anchored by 17 hydropower plants in Idaho and Oregon, supplemented by natural gas-fired capacity in Idaho and minority ownership interests in coal and gas plants located in Wyoming and Nevada. It was founded in 1915 and is headquartered in Boise, Idaho, and trades on the NYSE under the ticker IDA.
Beyond core generation, the company owns and operates extensive transmission and distribution infrastructure, including high-voltage transmission lines, numerous substations, distribution lines, and battery storage assets. End customers span commercial and industrial segments such as food processing, agriculture, manufacturing, healthcare, government, and information technology. The company also holds housing and other real estate tax credit investments as a smaller ancillary activity.
As a regulated electric utility, IDACORPs earnings are largely shaped by state-level rate regulation in Idaho and Oregon, which allows recovery of prudently incurred costs and a return on rate base. Its heavy reliance on hydropower makes annual generation output sensitive to regional snowpack and water availability, which is a key operating risk for investors in this sector. Regulated utilities of this kind are generally valued for their predictable cash flows and dividend stability rather than rapid earnings growth.
- Idaho rate case decision supports ROE and earnings growth
- Boise metro customer growth drives retail load expansion
- Capital plan boosts rate base with battery and transmission investment
