Biden Admin Greenlights LNG Exports from Alaska LNG Project

The Biden administration on Thursday approved exports of liquefied natural gas from Alaska Gasline Development Corp’s proposed Alaska LNG project, a Department of Energy document showed on Thursday.

Backers of the roughly $39 billion project say it can be operational by 2030 to export LNG mainly to countries in Asia, if it gets all required permitting.
