    Energy Companies of the Future

    Strategy and Business Models

    Although the energy transition is the focus of every energy company, emissions continue to increase and demand for hydrocarbons is at an all-time high. The direction of travel appears to be clear—increasing focus on climate and sustainability—but the pace is less certain and uneven globally. For investors, the correlation between sustainability and market performance is unclear, raising concerns over how to generate returns while meeting demands for sustainable portfolios. What is the vision for the energy company of the future? How do companies generate returns while accelerating energy transition?  Will the energy transition need higher energy prices? How do emerging and developing countries attract capital and talent from international companies?
