Flint Hills Resources is planning to build its second company-owned solar installation to assist powering its U.S. refinery operations.
The 27 MW installation would provide electricity to the company’s Corpus Christi West refinery, which produces jet fuel, diesel and gasoline. The company says the project is the first in Texas to provide onsite, self-generated electricity directly to an oil refinery.
“We continue to improve our refinery operations and make progress toward our vision of being the best refining company in the industry,” adds Jeff Ramsey, president and CEO of Flint Hills Resources.
“We are proving that large-scale solar can be successfully integrated into large, complex industrial facilities, helping to lower costs while maintaining reliability and improving our environmental performance.”
Arizona-based DEPCOM Power has been selected as the project’s EPC contractor. Both Flint Hills Resources and DEPCOM are subsidiaries of Koch Companies.

Here’s where you can donate to send a copy of the bible to the poorest of the poor African children.
Let the word of God explain to these children why they are dying of sickness and starvation. Certainly, their parents will be interested to learn this as well.
Always blame your opposition for the crimes you committed.
We baby boomers remember when the two dominant political parties were essentially indistinguishable. Eisenhower, a Republican, stood for strong Social Security, limited military, unemployment insurance, and a strong minimum wage.
What does today’s GOP champion? Cutting off all assistance for the poor, tax cuts of billionaires, slashing into Social Security (the money you and I earned) and starting a senseless and illegal war.
Who are the radicals here?
I just came across Sofo Archon, an incredibly interesting speaker and writer.
My only response to what he says at left is that you are, in fact, a leftist, whether you accept that or not. Anyone who says that he belongs to “Humanity and Earth” is a leftist by definition, just like anyone who wears the t-shirt below.
This is kind of like saying, “I am neither a Christian nor an atheist, but I believe in God and I accept His son Jesus Christ as my savior.” Sorry, that makes you a Christian.
