Preferred alternative at bottom right. / 42.829; -114.321. The Lava Ridge Wind Project is a proposed wind energy plant to be built in the Magic Valley region of Idaho. [1] [2] It would have a maximum of 400 wind turbines generating a nameplate capacity of over 1000 MW, making it one of the most powerful wind farms in the United States.
Since 1951, fifty-two reactors have been built on the grounds of the Atomic Energy Commission's National Reactor Testing Station, currently the location of the U.S. Department of Energy's Idaho National Laboratory (INL). BORAX-III was the first nuclear reactor to supply electrical power to the U.S. grid in 1955. Four reactors which do not ...
The Camas Meadows Battle Sites, also known as Camas Meadows Camp and Battle Sites, are two sites important to the Battle of Camas Creek, fought August 20, 1877 between members of the Nez Perce tribe and troops of the United States Army. The Nez Perce captured about 150 horses and mules from a campsite of the pursuing army, and for several hours ...
Thousands of megawatt-hours Generated [ 2][ 3] Megawatts of Wind Capacity [ 4] Idaho wind resources. Idaho could potentially install 18,000 MW of wind power, capable of generating 52,000 million kWh/year according to a study by the National Renewable Energy Laboratory. [ 5] Idaho used 23,063 million kWh in 2016 [ 6]
The electric power transmission grid of the contiguous United States consists of 120,000 miles (190,000 km) of lines operated by 500 companies. The electrical power grid that powers Northern America is not a single grid, but is instead divided into multiple wide area synchronous grids. [ 1] The Eastern Interconnection and the Western ...

Net metering is a policy by many states in the United States designed to help the adoption of renewable energy. Net metering was pioneered in the United States as a way to allow solar and wind to provide electricity whenever available and allow use of that electricity whenever it was needed, beginning with utilities in Idaho in 1980, and in ...
