Energy regulators voted Thursday to approve construction of a massive liquified natural gas (LNG) export terminal in Louisiana, paving the way for a larger fight between environmental advocates and fossil fuel groups as the project makes its way to the Energy Department for a final decision.
Members of the three-person Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC) voted 2-1 Thursday to approve the Calcasieu Pass 2 LNG export terminal on Louisiana’s Gulf Coast. The project, though, is still in regulatory limbo because of the Biden administration’s pause on new DOE authorizations for LNG exports.
