In-state concentration desk

IDACORP accounts for 22.9% of reported Idaho CO₂e (1.3M MT of 5.9M MT). The top three in-state reporters hold 44% (IDACORP; POLARIS RATHDRUM; AMALGAMATED SUGAR CO OREGON COOPERATIVE). Shares use EPA GHGRP facilities sited in ID only, not each parent's company-wide total.

  • Idaho is 0.2% of the 2.57B MT U.S. GHGRP facility rollup across 54 jurisdictions.
  • Leading EPA sector by CO₂e: Power Plants at 42.8% (2.5M MT across 7 facilities) - orthogonal to the facility-count sector mix below.
  • Trails Delaware by 129K MT on the same state ranking.
  • Leads Rhode Island by 1.7M MT on the same state ranking.
