State utility regulators have granted Idaho's largest utility permission to build a 300-megawatt natural gas-fired power plant in rural Payette County.

Idaho Power Co., a subsidiary of IdaCorp Inc., announced its plans for the Langley Gulch Power Plant in March.

The company expects the $427 million facility to be completed in December 2012 and help bolster its goal of increasing its baseload volume of power.

Idaho Power began promoting the project to residents and government officials earlier this year.
