Opening: In service by late 2028.
Cost: $5.9 billion.
Capacity: 3.3 mtpa (0.44 Bcf/d).
Feed pipeline: New 8 km tie-in to Coastal GasLink; ~0.4 bcf/d.
Location: Kitimat, Haisla Nation territory (Douglas Channel).
Ownership: Haisla Nation (50.1%); Pembina Pipeline Corporation (49.9%).

In 2025, the project entered a new phase of visible execution. The first pipeline segments were installed, marking a tangible shift from paper approvals to real infrastructure. The BC government committed CA$145 million to electrification lines and substations, cementing Cedar’s low-carbon credentials. At the same time, work started on the Cedar Link Connector and compressor stations, ensuring feed gas delivery. This progression shows Cedar LNG’s transformation from a proposal (2022), to FID (2024), and now in 2025, to active construction backed by major government funding – a clear signal of momentum toward its planned late-2028 start-up.
