Venture Global LNG has agreed to buy natural gas for its Plaquemines LNG export plant in Louisiana, expected to start up in 2024, from a unit of U.S. energy company NextEra Energy Inc., Reuters reports.
Venture Global filed the gas supply agreement with the U.S. Department of Energy on March 22. The company, however, did not provide details of the agreement.
The deal follows an earlier gas supply agreement with a unit of Spanish energy company Repsol SA.
