  New CEO Looney rings changes at BP with ambitious climate plan

  • 12 2月 2020

  Speaking after BP’s new chief executive Bernard Looney unveiled the major’s ambitious climate commitments today, Luke Parker, vice president, corporate analysis, said: “BP joins Shell, Total, Equinor and Repsol in making a major commitment to reduce its net carbon footprint. “This marks a major turnaround in BP’s position. Just 12 months ago former CEO Bob Dudley said the company could not be held accountable for how people use its products. Looney is taking the company in a very different direction.” Parker added: “It’s an ambition, rather than a target, but the commitment appears to be unconditional. In terms of scale of commitment, this puts BP towards the top of the pack, along with Repsol and Equinor. “This will see BP’s business completely transformed over the coming decades: renewables and carbon abatement will get very big, legacy oil and gas will eventually get smaller. But the transition to 2050 is a multi-decade transition - not something that will happen in the next year or so.”

  Webinar | North American Offshore Wind Market Outlook

  • 28 4月 2020

  The United States offshore wind energy market remains poised for explosive growth, with over 23 GW of new installations expected to come online by 2029. Demand is supported by robust state level offshore wind initiatives across seven states and is further enabled by federal auctions of Offshore Wind Area (OWA) leases on the part of the Bureau of Ocean Energy Management (BOEM). The former will support over 29 GW of installations through 2035. During this webinar, Wood Mackenzie head of wind research Dan Shreve will provide an overview of: 1) The impact of the Investment Tax Credit (ITC) extension on near-term market demand 2) Near-term scheduling delays due to the Bureau of Ocean Energy Management (BOEM) Environmental Impact Statement process 3) Investment opportunities for port infrastructure improvement and deployment of Jones Act compliant installation vessels Transmission infrastructure and other power market challenges.
