NextDecade Corporation NEXT

Company Overview

NextDecade Corporation is a U.S.-based energy infrastructure company focused on the development of liquefied natural gas (LNG) export facilities and related carbon capture and storage (CCS) solutions. The company operates within the energy, LNG export, and carbon management industries, with a strategic emphasis on supplying LNG to international markets while reducing lifecycle greenhouse gas emissions. Its core business is centered on the development, financing, construction, and operation of large-scale LNG export assets.

The company’s primary revenue driver is expected to be long-term LNG offtake contracts associated with its flagship Rio Grande LNG project, supported by integrated CCS infrastructure. NextDecade positions itself as a differentiated LNG developer by pairing large-scale export capacity with carbon capture capabilities designed to meet evolving environmental standards of global LNG buyers. The company was founded in 2010 and has evolved from a development-stage LNG exporter into a more diversified energy infrastructure developer following key regulatory approvals, commercial contracting milestones, and strategic investments over the past decade.
