(Información remitida por la empresa firmante)

“Fossil Fuels in Transition” has been developed in collaboration with ETC members from across industry, financial institutions and environmental advocacy. The ETC is a global coalition of leaders from across the energy landscape committed to achieving net-zero emissions by mid-century whose members include ArcelorMittal, bp, HSBC, Iberdrola, RMI, Shell plc, SSAB, Tata Steel, Vattenfall, Volvo, Worley, We Mean Business Coalition, World Resources Institute and Ørsted. This report constitutes a collective view of the Energy Transitions Commission. Members of the ETC endorse the general thrust of the arguments made in this report but should not be taken as agreeing with every finding or recommendation. The institutions with which the Commissioners are affiliated have not been asked to formally endorse the report.

1 In 2022, fossil fuel production, transport and use resulted in 34.2 Gt of CO emissions and 124 Mt of methane (CH) emissions. The CO equivalent effect of methane depends on the time period considered, with a multiplier of 30 applicable over a 100-year period, but 82.5 times over a 20-year period. 124Mt of methane is equivalent to 3.7GT of CO2 on the 100 year basis, and total fossil related emissions thus 37.9 (34.2+3.7) on this basis.
