About this project

The description is as the source gives it.

Sasol Chemicals signed a 15-year virtual power purchase agreement (VPPA) with Akuo for renewable solar power from the 195 MW Tennyson solar farm in Coke County, Texas. The agreement covers approximately 91 MW or 250,000 MWh annually, equivalent to about 50% of electricity consumption at the Lake Charles Chemicals Complex. This contracted renewable energy project reduces Scope 2 emissions in Sasol's own operations. Evidence: "Sasol and Akuo have signed a virtual power purchase agreement to supply renewable energy to Sasol’s Lake Charles Chemicals Complex in Texas. ... Deal will supply half of Lake Charles power needs and cut 90ktpa of CO₂" — https://www.renews.biz/101427/sasol-and-akuo-sign-us-solar-vppa/
