LNG

The US state of California, which has always rejected large-scale LNG imports or transfers, is now the centre of a major natural gas, power and water crisis blamed on planning policies dictated over the years by environmental activists. 

Executives from the leading LNG companies in North America and India took centre stage at the Gastech Virtual Summit on the key issues facing the natural gas industry, with Sempra LNG saying the energy transition was already happening in California and gave an estimate of natural gas needed in LNG terms to back up renewables.
