Chevron Phillips Chemical Cedar Bayou Plant — Baytown, Texas
Overview
TYPE3’s map data identifies Cedar Bayou as a petrochemical facility operated by Chevron Phillips Chemical Company, with coordinates 29.7550, -94.9130, city precision, Operating status, and a 200 MW seed estimate. Its note identifies ethylene, polyethylene, normal alpha olefins, and 1-hexene production and describes the site as the company’s largest U.S. manufacturing facility. Product output and acreage remain distinct from electrical load.
CPChem’s Baytown page places the Cedar Bayou facility at 9500 I-10 East, Exit 796, and describes approximately 2,100 acres, manufacturing activity, emergency response, and community operations. The company’s fenceline-monitoring page shows continuing environmental reporting, including a current monitoring report, while a TDLR project record identifies a privately funded new freezer-storage building with a future 2029–2030 schedule. These records support an operating industrial identity and ongoing project activity; they do not publish total electrical demand.
Cedar Bayou remains distinct from CPChem’s Port Arthur Plant and unrelated Baytown facilities. The 200 MW map data number is explicitly unconfirmed; ethylene, polyethylene, acreage, permit status, and a single improvement project are not proxies for load. Electrical demand, utility service, critical process load, emergency generation, and demand-response suitability require facility-specific operator and utility evidence. Current operating constraints remain facility-specific and unverified.
