The state's peak conservation body has fronted court this morning in an 11th-hour bid to halt a key component of Woodside's $16.5 billion Scarborough gas project.
The state's environmental watchdog has told energy giant Woodside it will only be allowed to extend its North West Shelf LNG project if it's capable of reaching net-zero emissions by 2050.
The Supreme Court has thrown out two appeals by the state's conservation council to review the approval of Woodside's $16.5 billion Scarborough project.
A $16.5 billion plan to develop the Scarborough gas field and Pluto Train 2 has been approved by Woodside Petroleum, the biggest LNG investment sanctioned in WA in a decade.
