ISO containers

Liquefied natural gas (LNG) from FortisBC is shipped overseas via ISO containers.1 In 2017, we became the first Canadian company to export LNG to Asia.

LNG for regional and overseas customers

LNG from FortisBC can help reduce overall greenhouse gas emissions by using LNG for electricity generation instead of their local energy, such as coal.2 We supply LNG as an energy alternative via ISO containers for regional and international markets.

1An ISO container is an international intermodal container that is manufactured according to the specifications outlined by Transport Canada for the transport of LNG.
