LNG Acceleration Act (LNG-G)

The law is part of the measures to quickly replace gas that is no longer imported from Russia. In order to be able to obtain LNG from other supplier countries, LNG terminals and the necessary pipelines must be created in Germany in the short term. The law speeds up approval, award and review procedures. It allows exemptions from an environmental impact assessment. Further, the existing regulations for the future climate-friendly subsequent use of land-based LNG terminals have been concretised. The law requires that the land-based LNG terminals and the natural gas pipelines required for the connection are already suitable for subsequent conversion to hydrogen.
