The multinational Equinor announced its ambition to become a company with net-zero emissions by 2050. The company is preparing to gradually reduce global demand for oil and natural gas starting around 2030. To develop Equinor as a company, renewable energies will be a significant area of growth. The company has already set profitable growth targets in the sector and will consequently reduce investments in oil and increase in the renewable sector.
