Shell announced in October 2020 that it would increase its spending on low-carbon energy by 25% within five years. Recently, the company announced that it wanted to develop a solar energy project in Paraíba. The project comprises seven parks with an installed capacity of approximately 323 MW.

Petrobras in the Market:
Major oil companies worldwide, such as Equinor, BP, and Total, have shown plans to expand their businesses in the renewable energy market. Petrobras, according to the company’s executive, stated that it lacks expertise in this area and therefore prefers to invest in a method it knows: oil and natural gas production.
Roberto Castello Branco said, “We do not have competence in this area, we are humble, we will not go out buying offshore wind farms or investing in energy transmission and other things. We will invest in what we know how to do well: oil and gas production.”
