Towards 3000 TWh/year of imported energy:

LNG terminals offer solutions for massive diversification of supply roads

the new Large-Scale LNG map says

Brussels, 25 April 2022

The current crisis recalls how crucial fostering a secure and resilient energy system is to protect EU citizens and economies. Diversifying roads and sources of supply is essential: this is where LNG terminals come in. According to GIE’s new Large Scale LNG map and database, they could enable Europe to import 3000 TWh of liquified energy.

The association of the gas infrastructure operators of Europe (GIE) published its new 2022 map and database of the Large-scale LNG facilities. Well-recognised in the energy sector, those transparency tools offer a good overview of the reality in the field with updated facts and figures. The 2022 edition underlines that LNG terminals could be the entry door for over 3000 TWh of imported energy per year.
