The project will support Illinois' efforts to increase statewide usage of renewable energy by 2040, and the project’s financing was partially supported by the Illinois Shines Program, which incentivizes the use of on-site solar for local businesses.
"We’re very excited by this opportunity to facilitate Plains’ continued efforts to deliver critical energy resources while lowering the carbon footprint of its operations through the use of solar and storage systems," said Catalyze Chief Commercial Officer Terrill Laughton. "These facilities will generate clean and economical energy for their local terminal operations.”
Under the agreement, Catalyze will build, own, and operate the solar-to-electrical conversion systems on 60 acres of leased land at the Plains Patoka Terminal, and Plains will purchase the clean energy generated to power operations at the facility under the 25-year agreement.
