The Idaho Legislature is nearing adjournment – and for those supporting clean energy issues in Idaho the session looms as a disappointment. A handful of moderately helpful bills have been signed by the governor in the past week or will soon be on the governor’s desk for expected approval. Meanwhile, citizens still have a chance to comment to the Owyhee County Planning and Zoning Commission on its expected approval soon of two towers that were illegally built to support a possible nuclear power plantr; and Idaho Power is looking to buy up to 600MW of firm power in 2012 and is also asking the Idaho PUC to approve recovery of costs for its newest gas plant.

A week after a Senate committee voted against bills to promote energy efficient schools and state buildings, the full Senate killed a resolution to engage Idaho in climate change issues and promote renewable energy. Meanwhile, the House couldn’t vote fast enough to grant French-subsidized nuclear giant Areva a pair of sweet tax deals. On the upside, Rocky Mountain Power asked the Public Utilities Commission to approve a request to ramp up its energy efficiency programs in eastern Idaho, and Rich Rayhill, one of Idaho’s leading proponents of renewable energy, will give a presentation on “Renewable Energy Opportunities in Idaho” at a House panel Monday afternoon.
