With Trump in office, you may see a few more new LNG Louisiana facilities come on

They better be a few years down the road. It’s a great problem to have, but the amount of work happening in that industry for the next few years is crazy.

The Biden Administration froze new LNG projects nationwide. Trump is lifting that ban the first day in office. Look for the state to develop a few more mainly in the Lake Charles area

Aren’t there two south of Lake Charles and the one south of Belle Chasse? Seems like it would be hard to want to build more at this time.

Europe and Asia are buying their LNG from us due to the Ukraine war. We will export even more from Louisiana

It's a walk through nationwide right now for any electrician with a pulse.
With all the work coming, it's going to be wild

Big Cajun directly across the river from the site on the New Roads side is practically running idle due to the current administrations aversion to coal powered plants.
Big Cajun 1 is natural gas and idle (I think). It’s smaller and barely visible above the tree line.
Big Cajun 2 has 3 units with massive concrete stacks you can see for miles. 2 of them are natural gas and one of them is coal. The coal one is either shut down or is about to be. I know all three ran full blast for quite a bit last year, and they are (combined) higher output than the nuke across the river. But the EPA decided that the coal one has until 2025 or 2026 to be shut down.
There is a lot of electricity output out of that one area between the Cajun plants, the massive solar farms, and the Riverbend station.

Not according to the guy that ran Flour's electrical side there until the late 2010s.
Maybe the igniters are gas. The unit cannot reach full load on gas, only coal.

They call it mothballing. Likely won’t be a demo.
Would like to see them convert the unit to natural gas if the Trump EPA won’t let them burn coal.

Or cofire with ammonia

And somehow it’s still not in great shape according to recent inspections.

Meta wants natural gas or nuclear. We are already expanding a large footprint across the south to provide more natural gas to the region for these data centers and for export. Doing the same for their data center in Utah.

New Roads and St Francisville are solid areas. The state needs to try to develop that part of the region.
The typography is pretty, it’s easy to get to the BTR airport, the transportation infrastructure is adequate and can support more population, and there isn’t as much vulnerability to hurricanes as there are south of I-10, and there isn’t as much of a flood threat since there isn’t that much development yet.

Would make sense as there is an abundance of natural gas in the state.
Haynesville baws, get your boots on. We're gonna frack like it's 2010.

And natural gas is what this state is blessed with.
Exciting stuff. 50-100 powerplant jobs in towns the size of St Francisville or New Roads is a big deal.

You shut your mouth with that nonsense. They start all that and we end up with DLSD housing projects here

Still wildly inconvenient if you need a grocery store.
I think the nearest grocery store is Audubon in St Francisville. The nearest Wal Mart is in New Roads.

Pointe Coupee and West Feliciana are never letting DLSD come in.
But they will need more residential development.

Yes indeed.
2 - 42” pipelines being put in coming from haynesville to Gillis as we speak.
Whitewater ran a line from midland to Katy and now working on putting in one from Katy to Sabine to export.
This is just onshore. Offshore has a plethora of large scale projects coming online in the next 2 years that will increase takeaway by another 5-10%.

Soooooo, has anybody looked into this Hut8 company?
Not many details out there about them. Just a lot of buzzwords on their website.
