Swift Creek Chemical Complex

⚡ Other FossilIndustrial CHP18 MW capacity

239th largest plant in Florida · 4920th nationally

Swift Creek Chemical Complex is a other fossil power plant in Florida with a nameplate capacity of 18.8 MW. It generates roughly 91.5k MWh per year — enough to power about 8,713 average U.S. homes.

Its capacity factor of 56% puts it in the middle range — running steadily but not full-time. At 615 lb CO₂/MWh, its emission rate sits below the national grid average of roughly 800 lb/MWh.
