The Sacramento Municipal Utility District has selected Pillsbury to represent it in the construction and development of a 400 MW off-stream power plant in California that would pump water from an existing lower reservoir during off-peak hours to a new upper reservoir, Iowa Hill Reservoir. That same water would be then released during peak-load hours from the upper reservoir through a tunnel system to a new powerhouse containing three 133-MW pump-turbines.
