Renewable Energy in Oil & Gas (2025)

Renewable Energy in Oil & Gas (2025)

Summary

Global power generation is increasingly shifting toward renewable sources, reducing the reliance on fossil fuels. While global energy generation has risen by around 30% in the past ten years, renewable energy has nearly doubled over this timeframe. The share of renewables in the global energy mix is anticipated to reach over 40% by 2030, which would be a notable achievement in climate change mitigation. This rise is anticipated to be largely driven by the proposed capacity increases in solar and wind power.

The oil and gas industry-including producers, service providers, and contractors-are relatively new entrants in the renewable energy space. Nevertheless, they are making notable movements in the competitive landscape for renewable energy, particularly, in offshore wind. TotalEnergies is anticipated to be the fourth largest producer of wind energy towards the end of this decade, if all its proposed projects go online. Elsewhere, BP, Shell, and several other European players are rapidly building renewable power capacity to position themselves more as energy companies, rather than purely oil and gas producers.
