It was just an idea.But if I understand the project in his whole DG should built two area's Great divide and algar and the rest "the so called satellite plants" are connected to these two ?

So 12000 is maybe possible but with these new pump technics and better SOR maybe some more if allowed.If that could be (just an idea of me cause I've no experience on that matter)But lying the focus on the best possible output from POD 1 could maybe help to achieve the maximum out of POD 1 with minor cost extra.
