This year marks EIC’s 80th anniversary, and Energy Focus could not be more excited to celebrate all that EIC has accomplished in partnership with members, partners, employees and friends. It is because of their continued support that EIC has been able to evolve continuously since its founding.

We asked two founding member companies and some of EIC’s key stakeholders and partners around the world for their reflections on EIC’s 80th anniversary. To keep the celebrations going, we will share all their kind words and congratulatory messages in every edition of Energy Focus this year.

Decarbonisation: a holistic approach to the UK's energy system

Submitted by digitalfreelancer on Tue, 09/20/2022 - 10:53

Amid an unprecedented energy crisis, gas technologies can play a critical role in the UK’s power mix: not only as a reliable transition technology that helps ensure grid stability by countering the

With UK energy prices at an all-time high and a surge in inflation, access to affordable energy and the wider green transition are both under threat. Our short-term energy security measures must therefore complement our ultimate climate action, says GE Gas Power’s Head of Strategy, Martin O’Neill

Thinking of exporting to the Middle East?

Submitted by digitalfreelancer on Tue, 09/20/2022 - 10:42

Europe has been home to a well-established oil and gas industry for decades.

Given the region’s substantial hydrocarbon reserves and the fact that plenty of investment is taking place, it is no surprise that the Middle East is an attractive export destination. With support for fossil fuel projects ending in Europe, now is the time to look further afield for oil and gas opportunities

Can Norway call itself a leader of the energy transition?

Submitted by digitalfreelancer on Tue, 09/20/2022 - 09:59

Since the 1970s, Norway has exploited the abundant oil and gas on its continental shelf, contributing to budget surpluses and the development of its sovereign wealth fund.

Norway has ambitious emission reduction targets but is not on track to meet them, says DNV’s Programme Director of Energy Transition, Sverre Alvik

Newfound sense of pragmatism reshapes oil and gas decarbonisation

Submitted by digitalfreelancer on Tue, 09/20/2022 - 09:53

The oil and gas decarbonisation debate has shifted in a more pragmatic direction during the past 12 months, largely in reaction to geopolitics and increasing anxiety over security of supplies.

Security of supply and cost of energy join emissions reduction as key drivers in the journey to net zero, says James Richardson, commercial director for UK industrial decarbonisation at Baker Hughes
