3. End Use Energy Consumption

4. Fuel In Wisconsin
Wisconsin receives 90% of refined fuels from four major out-of-state refineries
Flint Hills in St. Paul, MN
Exxon/Mobile refinery in Joliet, IL
Citgo refinery in Lemont, IL
BP refinery in Hammond, IN
10% of refined fuel can be produced in-state at the Calumet Superior refinery
- Once refined, product is shipped through 3 major pipelines to terminals located throughout the state.
23 terminals in the state (12 major)
Ethanol is blended at the terminal. 90% of gasoline sold in-state is blended with ethanol.
25+ Bulk plants (large storage tank facilities)

8. OEI Transportation Initiatives
Themes – Security, Resilience, Equity, Opportunity
Statewide Assistance For Energy Resilience and Reliability (SAFER2)
3-year project, $300,000 US DOE Award
Key Partners – OEI, WI Emergency Management, WI Clean Cities, UW Extension, Focus on Energy, WI Petroleum Marketers and Convenience Store Association, WI Propane Gas Association, WI Energy Institute, Local Governments and Tribes
Project Plan:
Pre-project survey
Regional Roundtable” Educational Events
10-15 local “deep-dive” analysis of energy resiliency and provide mitigation recommendations (alternative fuel vehicles, micro-grid siting analysis etc…)
Six Regional Tabletop Exercises
