Equinor presents its first Energy transition plan
Equinor has published its first Energy transition plan, which will be submitted for an advisory vote by shareholders at the company’s 2022 Annual General Meeting 11 May. The plan provides an overview of how the company is progressing towards its 2050 net zero ambition through short-term actions and medium-term ambitions.
Equinor also proposes to amend its object-clause, which currently has a sole focus on petroleum. The new wording will introduce “energy”, which is in line with the current strategy and the company’s ambition to deliver energy that has lower – and eventually net-zero – emissions.
“To decarbonise society, we need to be effective agents of change in the energy transition. We have set a clear direction to apply our experience, competence and the financial muscle from oil and gas to new value creating sectors of the energy system. We are pleased to present the plan to our shareholders and look forward to continued dialogue on the necessary decarbonization journey,” says Jon Erik Reinhardsen, Chair of the Board of Directors in Equinor.
“Our Energy transition plan is based on actions. We believe it demonstrates that we have the right strategy, ambition level, capabilities and track record to be a leading company in the energy transition while ensuring long-term shareholder value creation and competitiveness,” adds Anders Opedal, CEO and President of Equinor.
