Let’s deliver industry
with low emissions
We’re working hard to lower carbon emissions for industry
Industrial activity, power generation and commercial transportation account for 80% of all energy-related CO2 emissions. That’s why we’re working on solutions like hydrogen, carbon capture and storage and low emission fuels to help us reach our own net zero ambition. We’re also helping others in industries like commercial transportation and steel production find ways to lower their emissions, too.
Policy plays a key role in helping industry lower their emissions. When you support measures that help speed the path to net zero, it allows us to help companies find answers to lowering their emissions.
Watch: The world needs a broader set of solutions for a lower-emissions future

Supportive policy can help industry
Carbon capture and storage can reduce emissions from challenging sectors like manufacturing and heavy industry. New policies can help remove obstacles so businesses can invest in this technology now.
-
Supportive policies and lower-emission technologies
We advocate for policies that make it easier and more affordable for businesses to lower carbon emissions. This will help incentivize companies to invest in reducing their own emissions.
-
Investing in a lower emission future
Lowering industrial emissions will take different technologies used at scale. We plan to pursue billions of dollars in lower-emission investments through 2027.. We’re also working with other businesses in heavy industry to help them lower their emissions, too.
Our capabilities
-
Carbon capture and storage
Carbon capture and storage (CCS) is proven technology that can capture large volumes of CO2 emissions from industrial sources and store them underground, safely and permanently.Learn more about CCS -
Hydrogen
Hydrogen produces zero greenhouse gas emissions at its point of use. It's also versatile - suitable for power generation, trucking, and heat-intensive industries like steel and chemicals.Learn more about hydrogen -
Lithium
Lithium is a key component of electric vehicle batteries, and we plan to become a leading supplier of lithium using a modern process that has significantly less environmental impact than traditional mining.Learn more about lithium -
Lower-emission fuels
Lower-emission fuels (LEF) made from renewable sources - like vegetable oils and agricultural waste - can reduce emissions from trucks and other forms of commercial transportation.Learn more about LEF
