    Enyo development agreement for battery storage, solar and a possible natural gas plant

    Approved with conditions · 4-1

    Enyo Energy, an independent power company, proposed battery storage, solar and possibly a natural gas plant on six parcels (59:068:0005, 0002 and 0004 and 59:084:0010, 0009 and 0007), partnering with local data centers and Rocky Mountain Power. Principal Christine Mikell addressed the council, and City Attorney Marcus Draper said this is a new agreement, not an amendment. The council approved it with the maximum power pole height revised to 175 feet, as Enyo requested. Gray said the city should be a good partner but some terms needed tightening.

    • Applicant: Enyo Energy
    • Parcels: 59:068:0005, 0002, 0004; 59:084:0010, 0009, 0007
