Abstract: Experience with satellite systems for peak shaving is a subject that we are deeply involved in, not as Lowell Gas Company, but as Gas Incorporated, an affiliate of Lowell Gas. As all of you here are aware, LNG is the by-word of the industry. Every magazine you pick up has something about the subject. LNG has been dubbed the Giant of the70s. Generally speaking, all of the articles are directed at peak shaving applications, and curves are often shown depicting at what point company ABC should peak shave. This is good and I am not attempting to belittle this type of data. What I shall do is discuss not the economics of peak shaving but some of the actual facilities used in satellite systems and what our experience has been. The heart of the satellite system is the liquefaction plant. This type of facility we refer to as the mother plant. These plants, generally speaking, operate from 150-250 days per year during periods of low demand. The liquid from the process is then stored in large storage containers for use during the peak shaving periods.
