Accelerating the financing of sustainable transport fuels
Transport was responsible for 14% of global greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions in 2023. While electrification is the most efficient way to decarbonize road transport, inland/nearshore shipping, and even short-haul flights, it does not cover every use case. That means different approaches will be needed for areas such as long-haul flights (2% of GHG emissions) and shipping (1% of GHG emissions).

The energy transition dilemma for national oil companies
Trung Ghi, Daniel Monzon, Rodolfo Guzman
The COVID-19 pandemic and the subsequent crisis in the oil and gas (O&G) industry have presented national oil companies (NOCs) and their governments with an apparent dilemma: (1) become early adopters of decarbonization initiatives, or (2) take a slower, “wait and see” approach until outside pressure forces them to commit to a decarbonization path. In fact, the solution can instead be a strategy that embraces sustainability as an element of the NOC’s core business, creating value for stakeholders.

Why the bio-based materials market is finally poised for growth
Trung Ghi, Phil Webster , Daniel Monzon, Michael Kolk
This is now changing rapidly, reinvigorating the market. Demand is growing, driven by increasingly environmentally conscious consumers and governments’ Net Zero targets requiring consumer-focused product companies to achieve sustainability. Finally, technology breakthroughs are bringing down production costs for bio-based materials, while improving their performance to make them comparable or superior to fossil-based counterparts.
