P66, NextEra Resources to power Rodeo Solar Facility
OAKHURST, N.J. (DTN) --- Phillips 66, in partnership with a subsidiary
NextEra Energy Resources, LLC, is expected to power the Rodeo Renewable Energy
Complex with a 30.2-megawatt solar facility, reducing the complex's grid power
demand by 50%.
The solar facility, owned and operated by NextEra Energy Resources, will
generate nearly 60,000 MWh/year of electricity. It will be situated on
approximately 88 acres of land owned by Phillips 66.
The land is adjacent to the Rodeo Renewable Energy Complex consisting of
more than 70,000 solar modules that will support the renewable fuels facility.
Based in the San Francisco Bay Area, the Rodeo Renewable Energy Complex
produces renewable diesel and sustainable aviation fuel (SAF) using
lower-carbon intensity feedstocks, including used cooking oil, fats, greases
and vegetable oil.
The complex began processing only renewable feedstocks in March, achieving
full processing capacity of 50,000 bpd of renewable feedstocks in June.
