Our Vision & Mission
We want to
light the world
We want to light the world. Billions of people around the planet lack access to affordable power. Electricity should not be a luxury good.
Our mission is to provide capital, expertise and vision to address this problem while also making positive and meaningful impacts on communities and the environment.

Affordable, clean energy for everyone, everywhere
New Fortress Energy was founded in 2014 by Wes Edens, with the belief that access to affordable, reliable, cleaner energy is not a privilege, but a human right. Universal access to energy can impact major world issues, from education to poverty reduction to gender equality. Creating that access – in an environmentally responsible way – is our fundamental mission.
Our approach
-
Entering a market
We identify places around the world where affordable, reliable, cleaner energy is in short supply.
-
Building terminals & facilities
We build and operate LNG import terminals and facilities to supply natural gas locally, creating access to a better energy source.
-
Partnering with customers
We finance, design, and build gas-fired power generation and industrial facilities to help our customers convert to natural gas.
-
Investing in communities
We invest in transforming local communities – creating jobs and supporting education and other initiatives so the next generation can also embrace a brighter future.
