Energy Transition

Helping clients transition to a new world
The global transition away from fossil fuels, namely oil, naturalgas, and coal, is firmly underway. This change, driven by the rising
global demand for energy, has led to efforts of decarbonization
across all industries. In addition, aspects of energy security arebecoming increasingly important. In fact, energy transition could
become a problem solver both in relation to climate change andsecurity of supply.
