PGW weighs expansion of Port Richmond plant



Philadelphia Gas Works is measuring the market to potentially expand its liquefied natural gas (LNG) plant in Port Richmond.


The city utility on Monday announced it is accepting nonbinding proposals for the purchase of LNG. The response will help PGW decide if it wants to expand its capacity to produce LNG, for which there is a growing market as a transport fuel or for use in areas unserved by natural gas pipelines. The deadline for responses is Jan. 23.

PGW last year sold the equivalent of 1 billion cubic feet of natural gas to long-haul trucking companies and to companies extracting natural gas in the Marcellus Shale region.
