Electric Vehicles

Changing gas prices, advancements in battery technology, environmental concerns and federal incentives have increased interest in electric vehicles (EVs). As your electricity provider, Idaho Power is prepared for an increased use of EVs and wants to help you make the right vehicle decision for you.

EVs offer many benefits. Here are just a few of them:

  • Fuel savings. EVs cost less than half to fuel compared to a gas-powered vehicle.
  • Low to no tailpipe emissions. EVs reduce air pollution and benefits the environment.
  • Less maintenance. EVs have fewer moving parts and fewer fluids (no more oil changes!).
  • Instant acceleration. Combined with a quiet ride, EVs are fun to drive.

Have an EV? Consider using Idaho Power’s Time of Use pricing plan. This option could save you money and, by charging during off-peak hours, you’ll help even out demand on the grid.

EVs help our employees get around. We have numerous EVs in our company fleet, and we set a goal to have even more.
