“CRC’s leadership in pursuing lower-carbon operations shows what’s possible when renewable energy developers and traditional energy producers work together.” David Field, CEO of Luminia
By delivering on-site renewable generation, the projects aim to reduce energy costs for CRC’s field operations, reduce carbon emissions from energy production and intermittently offset up to 30 MW of daytime grid load, reducing the amount of power drawn from the grid during peak hours.
“These projects reflect our ongoing commitment to responsible energy production and innovation,” said Omar Hayat, CRC Executive Vice President and Chief Operating Officer. “By partnering with companies like Luminia we are advancing cost-effective renewable solutions that have the potential to lower the carbon intensity of our operations and contribute to a more resilient, sustainable energy future for California.”
Together, the Mt. Poso and Kern Front systems aim to further integrate renewable energy into California’s oil and gas sector, helping to further reduce emissions, improve operational efficiency and advance the state’s broader clean energy efforts.
