About the Presentation

Electricity comes from outlets, right? Okay, so where does the power we use come from, and how is it created to serve us in so many ways?

This presentation will focus on how Idaho Power generates and delivers electrical energy and the key materials involved in those processes, as well as other materials and elements with an Idaho connection.
