The New South Wales government has backed plans for the development of the A$250-million Port Kembla gas terminal being developed by the Australian Industrial Energy (AIE) consortium.
The proposed terminal will have the ability to supply more than 100 PJ/y of liquefied natural gas (LNG), sufficient to meet over 70% of New South Wales’ gas needs, and will generate 150 jobs during construction, as well as between 40 and 50 jobs during operations.
