The AES Barbers Point plant is a $383 million coal-fired cogeneration facility. The plant is the first major coal-fired electric power producer in the Hawaiian Islands, and is the largest single supplier of electricity to Hawaiian Electric Company (BECO). The plant is capable of supplying over 189 megawatts of electricity, approximately 18 percent of the electricity needs of Oahu, the most densely populated island in the Hawaiian chain. In addition to the electricity generated, the state-of-the-art plant produces 30,000 pounds of steam per hour for the Chevron USA oil refinery at Barbers Point.
