About this project

The description is as the source gives it.

MPC's Robinson, Illinois refinery partnered with Sol Systems to install a 5 MW solar farm on 30 acres of adjacent MPC-owned land. The on-site renewables project supplies electricity to the refinery under a 20-year PPA, reducing Scope 2 emissions and enhancing energy efficiency. Evidence: "The refinery is working with solar energy developer Sol Systems to install panels on 30-acres of MPC-owned land that’s adjacent to the refinery." — https://www.marathonpetroleum.com/Newsroom/Company-News/Solar-power-to-further-enhance-refinery%E2%80%99s-award-winning-energy-efficiency/
