3 Oil Companies Investing in Wind Energy презентация

1. BP

1. BP In 2003, BP changed its acronym meaning from “British Petroleum” to “Beyond Petroleum.” Over the next decade, BP built out its wind portfolio to 16 farms in nine states, with a total 2,600 MW of generating capacity.

2. Royal Dutch Shell

2. Royal Dutch Shell Shell has eight wind farms in North America and one offshore wind project in the Netherlands, with a total 500 MW of generating capacity. Its offshore project represents some harnessing of its experience with oil and gas platforms. The company notes that each of the 36 turbines is designed to “withstand North Sea conditions” and is protected from corrosion for 20 years.
