The facility will operate as a natural gas peaking unit, which will not run all the time, and will be available to quick-start and run on-demand during periods of peak energy use.

Additional natural gas generation is required to maintain a reliable power supply for members during peak energy demand.

Associated and its six owner G&Ts have built and maintain one of the largest integrated transmission systems in the country.
