Highlights: • Magnum Gas Storage is developing the first large-scale, high-deliverability, multi-cycle salt cavern natural gas storage facility in the Western U.S. • A facility of this type will act as a very large shock absorber helping to manage a multitude of issues related to the intermittent nature of renewable generation resources now legislatively mandated by western states • Energy storage of this type in the western system will help to support the addition of large quantities of new renewable generation, improve reliability, lower CO2 emissions and enhance transportation efficiencies. • The facility will offer highly customizable natural gas storage services to natural gas and power markets throughout the West. • The project will interconnect directly or indirectly with multiple pipelines originating out the Rockies.
