“With the development of this power plant, it will be possible to promote the reduction and decarbonisation of power generation facilities in the Kyushu region toward the realisation of carbon neutrality in 2050,” Kyushu said.
The two firms are already partners in the 2.4mn metric tons/year Hibiki LNG import and regasification terminal.
