In this ICYMI episode of the Oil & Gas Journal ReEnterprised podcast, Robert Brelsford, Downstream Editor, recaps details of Valero’s recent decision to shutter its refinery in Benicia, Calif., and the increased discussion it’s spurred regarding what some are calling California’s anti-industry energy policies.

While the planned refinery closure won’t be a first for net zero-focused state, it has triggered more aggressive attacks on California leadership and legislation.

This is a first of future ReEnterprised episodes that will take a closer look at California’s refining sector and the laws and regulations that govern it.
