Magnum proposes to rezone to heavy industrial

Magnum Development will propose changes at a Millard County Planning and Zoning Commission meeting that would allow solar and wind energy systems. Magnum has developed commercial-scale underground bulk cavern storage 10 miles north of Delta, part of the Western Energy Hub plan. These solution-mined caverns are capable of storing natural gas, compressed air, and liquid energy products underground.

This unique storage technology has the potential of efficiently integrating the generation and transmission of renewable power to and from the Western United States. With access to both the interstate rail and highway systems — and with direct access to natural gas pipeline systems — this central hub component is also located by a high voltage transmission grid offering exclusive energy options.
