S3 – Imperial Irrigation District Energy
Study Discussion
31 32
August 1, 2023
17 Background
• Imperial Irrigation District (IID) has a 99-year agreement to provide electrical service to the Eastern Coachella Valley (CV) that expires in 2033.
• The Coachella Valley makes up over 60% of IID’s energy customers but has no voting representation on IID’s board. • Riverside County and Imperial County Local Agency
Formation Commissions’ (LAFCOs) Draft Study outlines
options for future governance.
• Deadline for draft study written comments - August 30, 2023.
Stakeholders’ Options
Dopudja & Wells Consulting outlined these two
options with multiple variations:
• IID continues to provide electrical service to the
Eastern Coachella Valley along with voting rights on
existing board or create a new sub-board; or
• IID transitions electrical service to the CV, and the stakeholders invite another entity to assume
responsibility as area’s power provider.
33 34
August 1, 2023
18 Fiscal Analysis
• Draft Study does not include a cost analysis or
recommendation for most cost-effective scenario.
• IID did not have financials completed in time to be
included in Draft Study.
• $500,000 grant agreement requires the Study to
include cost analysis of each option.
Aging Infrastructure
Stakeholders should also consider:
• Current IID infrastructure was not designed to
handle the growth that has occurred in the CV.
• Customers are using more electricity, which is
straining the grid and impacting future growth.
• Funding upgrades will include an impending rate
increase to customers.
