This direct import of LNG from producers marks a significant milestone in strengthening the country's long-term energy security and enhances the national ability to diversify energy supply sources beyond the Middle East and Asia. It also helps manage energy cost risks arising from volatility in global markets and supports energy demand across the power generation and industrial sectors, thereby driving the nation's economic growth. This agreement aligns with the Energy Trilemma: ensuring energy security, promoting affordability, and fostering environmental sustainability.
