Planned Outages

Final Phase of Downtown Powerline Relocation Project - Starting Aug 31, 2026

Idaho Falls Power crews are completing the final phase of the Downtown Powerline Relocation and Improvement Project, which will improve long-term service reliability and modernize the electrical grid. Crews will be working primarily in the alleyway to connect the new underground electrical system to individual homes and businesses.

These service connections will require brief, planned power outages between August 31 and September 9. Outage dates and times vary by location and are shown on the map below. Customers affected by an outage have and will receive advance notice, and schedules are subject to change. Construction activity will generally take place Monday through Friday, approximately 8 a.m. to 4 p.m. This final phase will complete Idaho Falls Power’s Downtown Powerline Relocation and Improvement Project, which has been supported in part by a grant from the Idaho Governor's Office of Energy and Mineral Resources (OEMR) to enhance energy resilience and grid modernization.

Fairmont/Stanger Area Reconductor Project - Starting Sept 11, 2026

Idaho Falls Power crews are beginning the Fairmont/Stanger Reconductor Project to replace aging poles and overhead electrical wire and make improvements to the electrical system serving the area. The project is being completed in response to power quality concerns and customer feedback, with the goal of improving long-term service reliability.

As work progresses, brief, planned power outages may occur periodically throughout the project as crews replace and connect electrical infrastructure. Any outages will be carefully coordinated and kept as short as possible, with advance notification provided to affected customers whenever possible. Construction activity will generally take place Monday through Friday, approximately 8 a.m. to 4 p.m.
