Abstract: Until recently, Consumers Power Company has maintained a noninterruptible, fixed-source gas system. This dictates the utilization of underground storage to meet winter conditions experienced in the months from November to April. Also, because pipeline source gas is contracted in excess of one year ahead of the date required, gas has to be scheduled for the storage fields so that total system deiiverability can be obtained as needed. Since the majority of the annual gas requirements are temperature sensitive, weather analysis is an important factor in facility planning. Utilization of weather analysis actively aids in determining storage field inventories required to serve system demands for design day and design winter conditions. At Consumers Power Company weather analysis is used to help set design criteria levels. Based on these criteria, future gas supply and gas transmission facilities are scheduled.
