New Fortress Energy Extends Islandwide Gas Supply Contract in Puerto Rico

Business Wire
New Fortress Energy Inc. (NASDAQ: NFE) (“NFE”) today announced a
one-year extension of its 80 TBtu islandwide gas supply contract
with the Puerto Rico Electric Power Authority ("PREPA").
Additionally, the 10-year Operation and Maintenance Agreement
between Genera, NFE’s subsidiary, and PREPA will be modified to
eliminate future incentive payments in exchange for a $110 million
payment. NFE worked closely with Puerto Rico Governor Jenniffer
Gonzalez-Colon, the Puerto Rico Energy Bureau (“PREB”), the Puerto
Rico Public-Private Partnerships Authority (“P3A”), and PREPA to
streamline the incentive structure and fully aligns NFE and Puerto
Rico with a single goal: to deliver reliable, clean power to Puerto
Ricans at the lowest cost possible.
Under the islandwide gas supply contract, there is substantial
capacity to supply both NFE’s current downstream gas demand as well
as other legacy power plants running on diesel that can be
converted to run on natural gas. These conversions are a tremendous
opportunity for NFE and Puerto Rico alike to generate substantial
cost savings and significantly reduce emissions, and also lay the
groundwork for new long-term, cost-effective and sustainable power
solutions on the island.
This agreement reinforces NFE’s longstanding commitment to
strengthening Puerto Rico’s energy security. Since 2017 and the
aftermath of Hurricane Maria, NFE was one of the first responders
to Puerto Rico’s need for power and has invested hundreds of
millions of dollars of capital into projects that have provided
cheap and reliable energy to Puerto Rico. By providing natural gas,
NFE has already saved Puerto Rico over $500 million thus far in
fuel savings, and the extended gas supply contract offers pathways
to billions of dollars of potential savings in the future.
“We are pleased to reach this agreement, which strengthens our
partnership with Puerto Rico,” said Wes Edens, Chairman and CEO of
New Fortress Energy. “Optimizing our existing contract allows us to
accelerate the delivery of cleaner, more affordable energy while
achieving meaningful cost savings and environmental benefits for
the people of Puerto Rico.”
