Chevron has more than 25 years of experience developing and operating commercial power projects around the world.
Our power generation assets have a total operating capacity of more than 3,100 megawatts.
Chevron has interests in 13 power generation facilities in the United States and Asia. Twelve of these are combined-cycle and natural gas–fired cogeneration plants that use waste heat to produce additional electricity and heat for industrial uses.
The 13th facility is a wind farm in Casper, Wyoming. Our Casper Wind Farm is a 16.5-megawatt wind power facility built on the site of a decommissioned refinery. The renewable energy is delivered to the local utility provider.
We also are the world's leading producer of geothermal energy, with major operations in Indonesia and the Philippines. Chevron's two geothermal projects in Indonesia—at the Salak and Darajat fields in West Java—generate 636 megawatts of geothermal energy. In the Philippines, Chevron operates steam fields that provide geothermal energy to the Tiwi and Mak-Ban power plants, which supply power to Luzon. These facilities together generate more than 637 megawatts.
A number of our facilities also provide steam for the production of heavy oil.
