Imperial Irrigation District Data Access Guide
Imperial Irrigation District (IID) is California's third-largest public power utility, serving roughly 165,000 electric customers across the Imperial and Coachella valleys. As a publicly owned utility, IID is not subject to CPUC Green Button mandates, so programmatic data access is limited and largely manual.

Imperial Irrigation District Data Access FAQ
Can a C&I customer get interval (15-minute) data from IID?▾
Not through self-service. IID's AMI collects interval data, but there is no portal download. A commercial or industrial customer must request it by phone (1-800-303-7756) or email (customerservice@iid.com), specifying account, date range, granularity, and format. Expect 10-20 business days and possible fees.
Does IID support Green Button or a Share My Data API for consultants?▾
No. As a publicly owned utility, IID is exempt from the CPUC Green Button mandate and offers neither Download My Data, Connect My Data, nor an ESPI/aggregator API. Third-party access to a C&I account is manual and requires signed written customer authorization.
How does an energy manager authorize a third party to access IID data?▾
Have the customer sign a written authorization specifying account number, data scope, date range, third-party contact, and an expiration date. Submit it with the data request to customerservice@iid.com. IID typically delivers data to the customer or, with authorization, to the third party.
What rate schedules apply to commercial and industrial accounts?▾
IID's C&I schedules include GS (General Service), GL (Large General Service), and the optional time-of-use schedules TOU-GS and TOU-GL, plus A-2 (General Wholesale Power Service) and agricultural schedules (AG, PA). Current rate sheets are published on the IID rates page and updated by Board action.
