Jan 23 ID Energy Update: Energy Plan, AEHI Woes, and More

Months in the making, Idaho’s proposed 2012 Energy Plan is being sent to House and Senate committees for expected approval, warts and all. Meanwhile, the would-be developer of a nuclear reactor near the Snake River outside of Payette has run into problems with county planners, putting things on hold pending an appeal. That’s not the least of AEHI’s problems: It’s still embroiled in a high-stakes stock fraud suit brought by federal securities regulators. And Idaho Power may join with another utility and the Bonneville Power Administration in developing the Boardman-Hemingway transmission line from southwest Idaho to the Columbia River. We also have a report on the latest energy facility “siting” bill introduced by state Senate Democrats, complaints by two Twin Falls women over what Idaho Power’s new smart meters are really up to, and the announcement by Exergy Development that it plans 23 more wind farms in Idaho. Finally, the Idaho Legislature’s 2012 session is under way, so we’re resuming our weekly legislative update on things energy taking place at the Statehouse.

Areva’s Delay in Idaho Uranium Factory No Surprise
Snake River Alliance Has Questioned Need for Project Since Beginning
Today’s announcement by French-owned Areva Enrichment Services that it is suspending construction of its planned uranium enrichment factory near Idaho Falls comes as no surprise and is further evidence that the so-called “nuclear renaissance” is a mirage, the Snake River Alliance said.
