OIL COMPANIES AND HISTORICAL ENGAGEMENT IN RENEWABLE ENERGYClimate change challenges and the rise of renewable energy sources are increasing the social and environmental pressure on oil companies to re-position themselves in the societies in which they
7、operate. They have been doing this in a variety of different ways.Firstly, some oil companies have continued with business as usual and are strengthening their current strategies of oil extraction to maximise profits. Secondly, other oil companies have switched to low carbon sources, such as natural
8、 gas, blue hydrogen and biofuels. Switching from oil to gas would result in fewer greenhouse gas emissions and greater efficiency, while biofuels are already being used to a large extent (blended into petrol and diesel) but raise concerns regarding biodiversity effects and competing land use. Some o
9、il companies are already using carbon capture and storage (CCS) for enhanced oil recovery, and are converting natural gas into hydrogen and capturing the CO2 released to produce a valuable fuel that could be used in home heating, industry and eventually ships and planes (Mills, 2019). Finally, other
10、 oil companies are, with different degrees of intensity and commitment, transitioning to renewable energy and related technologies, such as solar, wind, EVs and green hydrogen.Before diving into analysis of the main oil companies, which is the primary focus of this paper, it is worth mentioning the
11、national oil companies and briefly summarising their approach towards the energy transition. National oil companies are state-owned leading petroleum producers that are primarily managed directly by governments; they represent more than 85% of global oil production and include companies such as Saud
12、i Aramco, Abu Dhabi National Oil Company (ADNOC), Brazils Petrobras, Chinas Sinopec and Malaysias Petronas.The attitude of national oil companies towards the energy transition depends on and is subject to diverse factors, such as the size of their markets (/.e.z largely domestic or primarily exporte
13、rs), governance structures, funding from fuel subsidies, as well as the institutional features of their home countries (political stability, regulatory quality, etc.), However, similar to the international oil companies, national oil companies are also embracing the energy transition through the ado
14、ption of strategies such as reducing energy consumption and/or emissions in oil production processes and facilities, investing in alternative fuel vehicles, and investing in new technologies such as CCS and hydrogen.Some national oil companies have started using renewable energy in their facilities
15、or providing it to other sectors. The latter, however, is not their key activity, and in some instances they are leaving the renewable energy production and ownership to their electricity sector counterparts in their home countries (Shojaeddini et al, 2019). For example, ADNOC has not established re
16、newable energy assets on its own but rather co-operates with the Abu Dhabi Future Energy Company (Masdar), which is leading renewables development in the United Arab Emirates (UAE) and through investment abroad (/.e.z solar PV and wind).In their strategies to lower emissions, almost all national oil
17、 companies are pursuing energy efficiency improvements and emission reduction strategies, including gas flaring reductions (Shojaeddini, et al., 2019). Saudi Aramco stands out as a first mover in flaring as a result of Saudi Arabias Master Gas System in the 1970s, rolling out a company-wide Flaring
18、Minimisation Roadmap, and through the pursuit of circular carbon economy technologies today.Some national oil companies are also engaged in renewable energy activities. China National Offshore Oil Corporation (CNOOC) revived its activities in offshore wind power in 2019, after closing its renewable
19、unit in 2014 (which operated wind, solar and biomass projects). The offshore wind sector aligns with the companys overall business, which can apply its resources in offshore engineering and its experience in offshore operations in the sector (Xin, 2020). Similarly, Saudi Aramco has long been interes
20、ted renewable energy and recently revealed plans to launch a new USD 500 million fund to promote energy efficiency and renewable technologies (Murray, 2020). Petrobras is actively engaged in biofuel energy generation with several biodiesel plants. However, with regard to renewables in general, Petro
21、bras recently announced its intention to focus only on research and to stop investing in operational assets, as this requires competencies different from the oil and gas business77 (Spatuzza, 2019).In addition, national oil companies are actively exploring the use of CCS as well as carbon capture ut
22、ilisation and storage (CCUS), which represents a game changer that would allow them to keep producing oil but with fewer emissions. The first CCUS facility in the Middle East, Reyadhah, was developed by ADNOC together with Masdar and has the capacity to capture 800 000 tonnes of CO2 annually, with p
23、lans to expand this to 5 million tonnes by 2030 (Hydrocarbonprocessing, 2020). Petronas also announced at the end of 2020 its strategy to achieve net-zero carbon emissions by 2050.This follows the companys more than two-decade- long journey to integrate sustainable practices into its business and de
24、cision making (Petronas, 2020).Thanks to their better access to capital, experience in managing large projects and easy access to sidled professionals, national oil companies could play a key role in boosting the energy transition and driving the expansion of renewables. However, national oil compan
25、ies may be reluctant to abandon the billiondollar fossil fuel business for the less appealing profits and tighter margins of renewable energy projects (Heller, 2019). In addition, national oil companies are primarily managed directly by governments, in contexts where societies depend heavily on oil
26、income. As such, they face specific challenges related to their mandated stewardship of national hydrocarbon resources, and thus their decision-making process is highly policy driven.2.1 INTERNATIONAL OIL COMPANIESThis paper focuses primarily on the seven main international oil companies: BP plc, Ch

35、l companies) are members of the Oil and Gas Climate Initiative (OGCI), a CEO-led initiative founded in 2014 aiming at leading the oil and gas industry response to climate change and scale up low carbon energy solutions - focusing on areas where OGCI can add value, beyond what individual members can
36、do, or the market already offers. OGCI prioritises its activities around three objectives: i) reducing CH4 emissions, ii) Reducing CO2 emissions and iii) removing CO2 (CCUS).The following sub-sections briefly present the historical evolution of each company in its approach and commitment (i.e, inves
37、tments, new business activities, etc.) to renewable energy and low-carbon technologies. Based on Table 1 and the descriptions of the companies, some preliminary conclusions on the companies engagement in the energy transition are drawn at the end of the section.BP plcBP was the first oil major compa
38、ny to diversify into renewable energy, showing interest in renewables from 1980 to 2010 with investments in solar and wind power (in both manufacturing and project development) (Pickl, 2019). In the early 2000s the company rebranded itself as uBeyond Petroleumz, investing USD 200 million in this new
39、 strategy, and established BP Alternative Energy to highlight its new commitment to the energy transition. However, due to difficulties in shifting from one line of business to the other, BP had to cancel more than half of its original investments in renewables.Despite the difficulties in entering t
40、he renewable energy business, BP still remains one of the oil companies with the largest such portfolios among its peers. BP still has onshore wind assets in the United States (US) and a CCS joint venture with Chevron, Petrobras and Suncor. The company also owns a biofuel business (sugarcane process
41、ing, ethanol production, R&D) in Brazil, which started in 2008 when BP became a shareholder of the Tropical BioEnergia plant. The company now operates three sugarcane processing units in Brazil: two in Goias and one in Minas Gerais. BP also is partnering with DuPont on a technology called Butamax, w
42、hich converts corn sugar into bio-isobutanol - a biofuel that is more energy rich than ethanol and can be blended with petrol in higher concentrations and transported through existing fuel pipelines and infrastructure (BP, 2019).In early 2018z BPs Chief Executive Officer Bob Dudley declared that the
43、 company was scanning opportunities to design strategies for a life beyond oil (Gilblom and Schatzker, 2018). The company returned to a sector that it had withdrawn from more than five years earlier by investing USD 200 million in Lightsource, Europes largest solar power developer (Sheppard and Rava
44、l, 2018). This comeback was followed by three additional steps in 2018 towards a low-carbon future. First, the company acquired a stake in FreeWire, a US company developing rapid charging infrastructure for EVs. Other deals followed, including a USD 20 million investment in StoreDot, an Israeli deve
45、loper of ultra- fast-charging batteries, and a partnership signed with the Chinese private equity group NIO Capital to invest in advanced mobility,/ technology in China (Ward and Hook, 2018).In 2019, BP committed to becoming a net-zero company by 2050. This means lowering emissions from the companys
46、 operations 30-35% and reducing carbon- related emissions in upstream oil and gas production 35-40% by 2030. By 2050, BP aims to tackle around 415 million tonnes of emissions - 55 million tonnes from its operations and 360 million tonnes from the carbon content of its upstream oil and gas production
47、. The company also aims to cut the carbon intensity of the products it sells 50% by 2050 or sooner. Finally, BP is focusing on low-carbon energy, including through a 10-fold increase in low-carbon investment by 2030, and an up to 8-fold increase by 2025, partnering with 10-15 cities and 3 core indus
48、tries in decarbonisation efforts (BP, 2020). In August 2020, the company announced that it would add 50 GW of renewables (wind, solar and hydropower) to its portfolio by 2030 (up from 2.5 GW currently) (Nasralla and Twidale, 2020).Chevron CorporationChevron made three early attempts (2000, 2014 and 2016) to establish its presence in renewable energy, namely in solar, wind and geothermal. However, thelower returns of the renewable business compared to oil and gas made the company revisit its strategy and continue focusing on its original core activities, while still ownin
