Electrical power came to Idaho to serve the mining industry in the late 1880s. Today, we depend on this resource to assist us throughout our day-to-day lives. Discover how “The Grid” provides power to your home, as well as the challenges and opportunities of incorporating renewable energy. We’ll also explore what happens when the power goes out and what it takes to get it back.
