Shell Discusses Global Energy Scenarios in First Live Web Chat

Shell_logo.svg.jpgRoyal Dutch Shell’s Global Business Environment executive Jeremy Bentham and team addressed and fielded questions from the press regarding the company’s “Energy Scenarios to 2050” research and analysis during the first of a planned series of live Shell Dialogues web chats earlier today, May 15.

Emerging nations have been increasingly participating in globalization for the past ten years and more and will continue to do so, creating a significant “discontinuity” on the demand side of the global energy production and distribution system, Bentham noted during the web chat - one that conventional energy suppliers, as well as governments and international agencies, have failed to adjust and adapt to in timely fashion, much less foresee, he might have added.

At 7.5 MW - twice as big as the competition, which clock in at an average of around 3.5 MW - the Britannia achieves the economy of scale that offsets the extra cost of offshore development, while simultaneously reducing the number of platforms you need. Which means, paradoxically, that with a larger wind turbine, you leave a smaller environmental footprint (hey Bobby Kennedy Jr., are you listening?)[read more]
