JERA Americas is advancing an LNG-fuelled power project on Hawaii, developed at a cost of $1.5 billion for the 500 MW plant plus around $500 million for offshore LNG import terminal.
Aug 20 (LNGJ) - Hawaii and several other US island territories increasingly view imported LNG as a 'viable option' for expanding their fuel diversity, according to the US Energy Information Administration (EIA).
Relatively low US natural gas prices, support this move as well asthe use of standardized cryogenic shipping containers which allows smaller volumes of LNG to be trucked, railed, and shipped.
