More than electricity:
how energy access helps power communities with positive energy
Powering the community
When people think about energy, they often picture power plants, fuel, and infrastructure. But the true impact of energy is felt far beyond those assets— in classrooms where students can learn, hospitals that provide lifesaving care, small businesses that can grow, and homes where families can thrive. Around the world, access to reliable and affordable energy creates opportunities, strengthens communities, and powers a brighter future.
Powering education
Around the world, access to dependable energy supports schools, technology, and learning environments that allow students to reach their full potential. At New Fortress Energy, this commitment extends beyond energy infrastructure through partnerships and programs that help strengthen educational opportunities in the communities where we operate.
Across the communities where NFE operates, we partner with schools, nonprofits, and local organizations to expand access to educational opportunities and help empower the next generation. By providing students with access to books, computers, technology, and enrichment programs, we strive to make learning more engaging, accessible, and inclusive. From robotics and computer literacy programs to internships and STEM initiatives, these partnerships help equip young people with the knowledge, skills, and confidence they need to pursue their goals and succeed in an increasingly connected world.
NFE's commitment to education also includes creating pathways to long-term career opportunities. Through internship and workforce development programs, students gain hands-on experience and exposure to the energy industry, with many participants advancing into full-time roles across our corporate offices and terminal operations. By investing in local talent, we help build a skilled workforce while supporting the long-term success of the communities we serve.
Economic opportunity
The development and operation of LNG infrastructure can create lasting economic benefits that extend far beyond the facility itself. During construction, these projects generate significant employment opportunities across engineering, skilled trades, logistics, and construction, while also supporting a broad network of local contractors, suppliers, and service providers.
Once operational, LNG facilities continue to create long-term career opportunities in areas such as plant operations, maintenance, safety, marine services, and energy management. These roles help build local expertise, strengthen workforce development, and contribute to the growth of a skilled labor base within the community.
Beyond direct employment, reliable energy infrastructure can serve as a catalyst for broader economic growth. By improving energy reliability and expanding access to affordable power, LNG import terminals and power generation facilities can help attract new investment, support business expansion, and enable growth across industries such as manufacturing, commercial development, and local services. The result is a positive economic ripple effect that helps strengthen communities and create opportunities for long-term prosperity.
Building stronger communities
NFE has had the privilege of operating in communities around the world, and we are committed to being a positive and lasting partner wherever we work. By pairing critical energy infrastructure with meaningful community engagement, we strive to create benefits that extend beyond the delivery of reliable energy.
In regions affected by natural disasters and other significant challenges, NFE has supported recovery efforts by working alongside local organizations, community leaders, and nonprofit partners to help provide essential resources and restore stability. These efforts reflect our belief that supporting communities during times of need is an important part of being a responsible neighbor.
That commitment extends beyond emergency response and into everyday community life. Through initiatives such as holiday meal distributions, youth programs, educational partnerships, and support for local nonprofits, we aim to create opportunities for connection, support, and long-term community development. By working collaboratively with schools, civic organizations, and local partners, we help strengthen the communities where we live and work.
At New Fortress Energy, we are committed to supporting resilience during challenging times, investing in people and communities, and helping create a stronger future powered by positive energy.
