Arlington, Va. and Stuttgart, Germany (ots/PRNewswire) – Venture Global LNG and EnBW today announced the signing of two long-term sales and purchase agreements (SPAs) for 1.5 million metric tons per annum (MTPA) of liquefied natural gas (LNG) from Venture Global’s Plaquemines and CP2 facilities, beginning in 2026. Under the agreement, EnBW will purchase 0.75 MTPA from Plaquemines LNG and 0.75 MTPA from CP2 LNG for a period of 20 years. EnBW is the next European customer of Venture Global, which has already announced agreements with PGNiG, BP, Shell, Repsol, Edison and GALP.
“Venture Global is pleased to welcome EnBW as a long-term customer for both our Plaquemines and CP2 LNG facilities,” said Mike Sabel, CEO of Venture Global LNG. “This is the first direct binding offtake agreement for long-term U.S. LNG signed by a German company. It is an important step that illustrates Germany’s strategy to diversify its energy mix. Our company is honored to become a key LNG supplier to Germany and ensure security of supply on a competitive, long-term basis.”
“EnBW is looking forward to a long-term LNG partnership with Venture Global,” explained Georg Stamatelopoulos, Chief Operating Officer Generation & Trading at EnBW. “We have been expanding our LNG activities step by step in recent years. Liquefied natural gas plays a key role in diversifying our fuels for power and heat generation: This opens up the opportunity to use new sources to secure Germany’s gas supply in the current phase of the energy transition and builds a bridge to a green energy supply.”
