Energy Transition

The energy transition represents a global movement towards shifting from fossil fuels to renewables and low-carbon energy sources, aimed at reducing energy-related carbon emissions and combatting climate change.

This transition necessitates a significant and accelerated increase in investment in renewable energy, along with greater electrification of industry, transportation, and heating. Additionally, it involves the development of electrofuels such as green hydrogen, particularly in situations where electricity cannot effectively replace hydrocarbons. Carbon capture and storage on a large scale are also crucial for capturing emissions that cannot be prevented.
