Shell’s lack of ambition is maddening: it’s time to speed up transition to renewables

The infuriating thing about Shell, after a year in which profits reached almost $40bn (£32bn), is the refusal to contemplate even a modest course-correction in favour of a faster energy transition. Distributions to shareholders via dividends and buy-backs were cranked up to $26bn last year, but spending on the renewables and energy solutions division was just $3.5bn within the overall capital expenditure outlay of $24.8bn.

Even on the company’s broader metric, the greener stuff came out at only one-third of total expenditure
