Sept 2 (Reuters) - Energy firm Commonwealth LNG said on Tuesday it has received the final non-free trade agreement export authorization from the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) for its export facility in Louisiana.

The LNG export facility is located in the Cameron Parish and is expected to have a capacity of 9.5 million tonnes per annum.

Commonwealth said the permit allows it to advance towards a final investment decision later this year with first LNG production expected in 2029.

In May, the DOE said it will begin issuing final orders on pending applications to export liquefied natural gas to countries without a free trade agreement with the U.S.
