Climate change

Climate change is a complex challenge and requires a combination of innovative technologies, business evolution and forward-thinking partnerships. We have identified strategic initiatives to ensure immediate, tangible action toward our energy transition strategy as we evolve for a low-carbon future. 

Initiatives include carbon capture and sequestration, low-carbon hydrogen, renewable natural gas, biofuels, electrification and other emerging technologies. 

We continue to pursue renewable energy opportunities and develop, assess and invest in a portfolio of short-, medium- and long-term decarbonization opportunities.
