Idaho's energy potential lies in its substantial renewable resources, including solar, wind, hydro power, geothermal, and biomass.

In 2017, 82% of Idaho’s in-state utility-scale net electricity generation came from renewable energy resources, and Idaho had the sixth-lowest average electricity prices in the United States.

In 2017, 67% of the electricity consumed in Idaho was generated in-state. Additional needed power came from other states and Canada. Coal-fired power plants in Wyoming, Oregon, and Nevada supply significant amounts of Idaho's power, but several of those coal-fired plants are facing closure in the next few years.

Hydroelectric power supplied 60% of net electricity generation in Idaho in 2017, the third-largest share in the nation. Drought reduced hydropower's share from the 69% average of the previous 10 years.

Natural gas consumption per capita in Idaho ranks among the lowest one-third of states despite extremely low temperatures in winter and the 53% of households that use natural gas as the primary energy source for home heating.

In 2017, renewable resources accounted for a larger share of net electricity generation in Idaho than in any other
