From KFYR-TV:
Construction is just beginning on Pioneer natural gas plant west of
Williston. It`s going to be a peaking plant, which means It will
provide extra electricity when demand is at it`s highest.
Peaking stations are built to run faster than other electric plants.
"Once you hit the start button, then we`ll be running online at full
load in about 15 minutes. That`s the beauty of a peaking station," Hill
said.
Energy: 45 megawatts at peak power. 1 MW can power 800 "average" residential homes."
