What kind of reservoir will Susitna-Watana Hydro create?

The current project model would create a reservoir that is about 42-miles long and an average width of 1 mile. This reservoir will provide the water storage necessary to generate the electrical capacity needed to meet 50 percent Railbelt electrical demand, especially during critical winter months.
