Tackling climate change is the biggest challenge the world faces today. In 2021 Shell launched its Powering Progress strategy to accelerate the transition of Shell’s business to net-zero emissions by 2050.
As a major refiner, supplier, and retailer of road transport fuels in Europe, Shell is required to comply with government mandates by blending renewable fuels. At the same time non-compliance with mandates and regulatory requirements is prohibitively costly.
