Cheniere Publishes 2020 Corporate Responsibility Report

Cheniere Energy, Inc. ("Cheniere") (NYSE American: LNG) today published its 2020 Corporate Responsibility (CR) report, titled Built for the Challenge. The report details Cheniere's strategy and progress on environmental, social and governance (ESG) issues, and highlights the company's resiliency, responsible actions and response during a period overshadowed by the global COVID-19 pandemic. The report also spotlights Cheniere's recent efforts on integrating climate considerations into its business strategy and taking a leadership position on increased environmental transparency, including conducting a climate scenario analysis aligned with TCFD recommendations, and announcing the company's plan to provide LNG customers with Cargo Emissions Tags.

"For Cheniere, 2020 will be remembered as a year when our business and people were tested like no other and proved that we really are Built for the Challenge," said Jack Fusco, Cheniere's President and Chief Executive Officer. "Whether it was keeping our workplace safe and healthy during the COVID-19 pandemic and multiple hurricanes, addressing Diversity, Equity and Inclusion, or taking action on integrating climate into our platform, 2020 was a year of remarkable progress and triumph in the face of significant challenges."
