Wyalusing LNG Plant is Dead; Gas-Fired Power for Data Ctr Replaces

We had heard rumors that the LNG liquefaction plant planned by New Fortress Energy (NFE) for Wyalusing in Bradford County, PA, was being dropped in favor of an alternative. Namely, a gas-fired power plant project. We can now confirm that the rumors are true. The Pennsylvania Department of Environmental Protection (DEP) published notice in the July 12 PA Bulletin inviting comments on an air permit for the proposed 248 megawatt (MW) Wyalusing Energy Center, a natural gas-fired power plant in Wyalusing Township, to be used to power a data center. The power plant permit is for the exact location where the LNG liquefaction plant was planned.
