Boston LNG Import Terminal to Remain Open IF Mass. Approves Deal

In early December, MDN updated you on the very real possibility that Everett LNG import terminal (Boston area), which accepts and regasifies foreign-sourced natural gas, may shut down this May following the closure of New England’s biggest natural gas-fired power plant, the Mystic Generating Station in Everett, MA (see Constellation May Have to Close Boston LNG Import Terminal). As we pointed out in that post, Constellation Energy, the owner and operator of the Everett LNG terminal, was actively trying to find new contracted customers so it can keep the terminal open and keep the lights on in New England. Lightning struck! Constellation has a deal with utility giant National Grid to sell natural gas to the company from the Everett terminal for six years.
