Cameron LNG enters into agreement with Entergy Corp to reduce emissions

Liquefied natural gas export facility Cameron LNG said it has entered into a memorandum of understanding (MOU) with Entergy Corp’s unit to negotiate terms for a new electric service agreement (ESA).

The new ESA is aimed at reducing Cameron LNG’s Scope 2 emissions from the electricity it purchases from Entergy Louisiana.

Scope 2 emissions refer to those a company causes indirectly from the energy it purchases. Scope 1 refers to direct emissions from the company.

The MOU comes with a framework for Entergy and Cameron to sign a minimum 20-year deal for the procurement of new renewable generation resources in Louisiana.

Cameron, an LNG export facility with a capacity of 13.5 million tonnes per annum, is a joint venture between affiliates of five companies Sempra Infrastructure, Mitsui & Co , Mitsubishi Corp, TotalEnergies and NYK Line.
