Energy giant AGL has formally withdrawn its plan to build a liquefied natural gas (LNG) import terminal in Melbourne just weeks after the Victorian Labor government rejected the company’s proposal.

“The Victorian Minister for Planning found AGL’s proposed project to have unacceptable environmental effects,” an AGL spokeswoman said in a statement.
