Every peak the reports print

Every peak demand figure an annual report prints: all-time records with the date they were set, and the year's own peak where a report gives one.

Measures

MeasureWhat it measuresUnit
Idaho Power all-time peak demandIdaho Power's all-time system peak demand in megawatts as stated in the annual report for the year, by season: the highest hourly load the utility had served as of that report. It rises only in a year that set a record.mw

Record fields

Every peak demand figure an annual report prints: all-time records with the date they were set, and the year's own peak where a report gives one.

  • year: Year the peak occurred.
  • season: Summer (the report's system peak) or Winter.
  • megawatts: Hourly peak demand in megawatts as printed.
  • date: Date the peak was set, as printed; absent when the report gives only the year.
  • kind: record for an all-time high, annual for a year's own peak that was not a record.
  • filing: Fiscal year of the report the sentence is from.
  • sentence: The sentence of the report the figure was read from.

Caveats

  • The series is the all-time record as each year's report states it, not the year's peak. It steps up in a year that set a record and repeats the prior figure otherwise. The observation's period is the fiscal year of the report; the date the record was set is in the table.
  • The year's own peak is printed only in some reports (none for 2009, 2010, 2014, 2018 to 2020, 2023 and 2025), so annual peaks are kept in the table as printed and not carried as a series.
  • The scope is Idaho Power's system, which serves southern Idaho and a corner of eastern Oregon; Rocky Mountain Power's eastern Idaho load and the northern cooperatives are not in it.
  • Peak demand is hourly system load as the report states it; several reports note that demand response programs reduced the figure at the hour of the peak.
  • The report calls the summer record the system peak; a 2006 report notes a record set in June and surpassed in July of the same year, and the 2022 report a winter record set on December 19 and surpassed on December 22, so both figures are in the table.
  • Figures are taken from the sentences of the report, not from a table; a report that changes its wording fails the puller rather than silently missing a year.
