Cryogenic air separation is the primary process by which air is distilled into its components. The only inputs are air and electricity to drive the main air compressor. I imagine the electricity used to drive the air-sep process is less than the plant produces by a considerable margin.
The plant could have a dedicated air-sep unit or have oxygen delivered by truck in liquid form.
