North Dakota and Wind Power

North Dakota is the base of one of the largest wind farm, electricity generation projects in North America with capital investment expected to exceed $4 billion. President Obama has stated his commitment not only to renewable energy but also to connecting these wind farms into the grid to supply Chicago with power. Wind power is one of the most environmentally friendly sources of power but does not provide a consistent output since power is only generated when wind is blowing.

This can lead to complex power management issues. These can be potentially resolved by storing compressed air in underground storage caverns and then releasing it when required to power turbines to generate electricity when it is needed.

Dakota Salts and the Sirius Exploration group of companies are committed to identifying innovative new ways to commercialize its properties concurrently or after the mining activity has been concluded that help reduce carbon emissions.
