LyondellBasell, a global player in the chemical industry, has expanded its collaboration with TotalEnergies by signing a second corporate power purchase agreement (CPPA).
This follows the initial agreement inked at the end of 2022.
Under the 15-year CPPA, LyondellBasell will procure 125MWac (163MW) of electricity from TotalEnergies’ Brazoria Solar farm in Texas, US.
The solar farm, with a capacity of 325MW, is expected to start operations by the end of 2025.
Simultaneously, under the 12-year CPPA from 2022, LyondellBasell will continue to acquire 150MWac (195MW) from TotalEnergies’ Cottonwood Bayou Solar plant in California, with a capacity of 455MW, set to commence operations by the end of 2024.
LyondellBasell views these power purchase agreements as crucial tools in its efforts to reduce scope 1 and 2 greenhouse gas emissions.
