Energy Transition and Future Scenarios
Shell continues to engage in discussions about the energy transition and future scenarios. In a podcast featuring economist Arnold Mulder, the company addressed the current necessity of oil and gas while exploring pathways to transition away from these resources. This balanced approach acknowledges the present reality while actively working towards a more sustainable future.
Additionally, Shell released a bonus episode of The Energy Podcast, featuring Peter Wood, Shell's Chief Energy Adviser, and Dr. Mallika Ishwaran, its Chief Economist. The episode delves into Shell's scenario planning, a practice the company has been engaged in for half a century. These scenarios, while not predictive or reflective of Shell's strategy, provide valuable insights into possible future energy landscapes, helping to inform better decision-making today.
