Micron memory fab (Micron FAB), Boise

Micron Technology, Inc. · contracting as Micron Idaho Semiconductor Manufacturing (Triton) LLC · Boise, ID · semiconductor fab

Exhibit 3 of the ESA (the year-by-year Scheduled Ramp Contract Demand and Minimum Monthly Billing Demand in kW) is printed in the public application but is not transcribed here: the PDF's font encoding defeated text extraction on 2026-09-21, so those figures await a read from the rendered document. The existing Micron Technology campus is a separate ESA customer and is not part of this dossier.

Dockets

Why this facility: The largest named load with public figures in the region and not a data center: the utility's application states the anticipated steady-state peak, the ESA states the interconnection-facilities size and the minimum-billing floor, and the commission's order fixes the prices. A second Boise fab was announced on 2025-06-12 with no size; it is a separate phase with no row.

What was announced, in the announcer's own unit: floor or cleanroom area, dollars or a power figure. A press or agency release counts only here.

Requested from the utility

What the customer asked the utility to serve, from the utility's filing or the regulator's record; a threshold or floor where the schedule is confidential.
  • Micron anticipates an annual peak demand at steady state of approximately 507 MW, beginning in 2031 Idaho Power · docket IPC-E-24-44 · Application for approval of special contract and tariff Schedule 28 · paragraph 11 (Contract Demand)· anticipated annual peak demand at steady state, the basis of the Embedded Contract Demand; the expansion period's Scheduled Ramp Contract Demand is Exhibit 3 (see facility note)

Minimum billed whether used or not

The minimum the applicable tariff sheet or executed contract bills whether used or not.
  • Minimum Monthly Billing Demand will automatically reduce by 30 MW on June 1 of each year down to a minimum of 20 MW Idaho Power · docket IPC-E-24-44 · Micron FAB Special Contract section 5.5; Order 37039 · section 5.5(a)-(b); Order 37039 ordering paragraphs (Billing Demand charge $20.25 per kW, Contract Demand charge $3.12 per kW, initial Energy Charge $0.04084 per kWh)· the floor after expansion: on the Embedded Contract Demand's effective date the Minimum Monthly Billing Demand falls 30 MW from the then-effective amount, then 30 MW each June 1 to 20 MW; during expansion it equals the Scheduled Ramp Contract Demand in Exhibit 3

Why nothing here is added up

Never add these figures to each other, to a utility forecast that already includes the facility, or across facilities. The utility on a dossier is the one a filing or contract names. Proximity to a substation, a service-territory polygon or a balancing authority never establishes who serves a facility.

  • A superseded announcement restates the earlier one: the chain is one figure, not several.
  • A service request, a minimum billing demand, a contracted capacity and a metered use describe one facility in different roles; the same MW can appear in more than one.
  • A utility's class forecast (Idaho Power's additional firm load, PGE's data-center load) already contains its named customers: adding a named figure counts it twice.
  • MW, MWa, MWh and square feet are different quantities; dollars are not load.
