The Energy Transition and the race to net zero is upon us now. Governments have set a clear path forward with a determined end point to achieve the required energy mix to obtain net carbon free emissions targets by 2050. From a business perspective this is a golden opportunity, the demand is confirmed.
In the first of this two part mini series of webinars, we look at what Energy Transition is and why the oil and gas industry is so important in the race to meet net zero targets by 2050.
We also take an in-depth look at the following four sectors;
- Offshore Wind
- CCUS
- Hydrogen
- Energy Storage
