BioStar Renewables announced April 4 that it has partnered with Seaboard Energy LLC to develop and construct a behind-the-meter solar array that is producing renewable electricity for Seaboard’s 85-million-gallon-per-year renewable diesel plant in Hugoton, Kansas.

 



The 15-megawatt solar array is located at the Seaboard plant 2.5 miles west of Hugoton city-center and consists of more than 27,000 solar panels.

 



The project is capable of producing more than 30 million kilowatt-hours of electricity each year, reducing the reliance on the local utility.

 



The renewable power generated by the solar array has the potential of displacing more than 21,000 metric tons of CO2-equivalent emissions per year.

 



This is the equivalent of providing nearly 3,000 homes with electricity or 3.3 million gallons of gasoline consumed for an entire year.

 



BioStar developed the project and provided engineering, procurement and construction (EPC) services.

 



The project supports Seaboard’s commitment to clean energy.
