German regulator green-lights RWE, Uniper concept for LNG regasification terminals

BERLIN (Reuters) - Germany's network regulator said RWE and Uniper's management concept for floating LNG regasification terminals (FSRUs) chartered by the German government were in line with regulatory objectives for a transitional period until the end of March 2024.

"The FSRUs operated by RWE and Uniper will already contribute to securing gas supply from winter 2022/2023," Klaus Mueller, president of the Federal Network Agency, said in a statement on Thursday.

"The companies' management concept complies with the regulatory framework for a transitional period," he added.
