What’s Planned
Chevron’s remediation work has prepared the site for future beneficial use. A little more than a century after refinery operations first began at Fillmore Works, the property will soon begin a new era of energy development as a solar electricity generation facility. Ventura Solar, LLC, an affiliate of BAP Power Corporation, doing business as Cenergy Power, leased the site and is constructing a 3-megawatt solar electricity generation facility. Under an Energy Services Agreement with Ventura County, the solar facility will provide electricity to power county facilities. Chevron will continue to own the property and manage long-term groundwater remediation activities at the site.
