Pine Bend has a capacity of 375\,000 barrels per day\, and is among the most efficient and safest oil refineries in the country. Pine Bend has earned the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency's (EPA) ENERGY STAR certification five years in a row since 2020\, signifying that the refinery performs in the top 25% of manufacturing facilities nationwide for energy efficiency.\n\n \n\nFlint Hills Resources directly and indirectly supports more than 4\,000 Minnesota jobs and has invested nearly $1.7 billion on upgrades and improvements to its Minnesota facilities since 2010.
