A Two-pillar Multi-energy Strategy

TotalEnergies aims to address the rising global energy demand while cutting greenhouse gas emissions through a strategy built on two main pillars: Oil & Gas and Electricity (Integrated Power).

Faced with the dual challenge of meeting growing energy needs and reducing emissions from energy production and consumption, the company is pursuing an integrated and balanced multi-energy transition. This approach supports their goal of carbon neutrality in partnership with society.

Energy's Essential Role and Climate Challenge

Energy is fundamental to daily life, powering food production, lighting, heating and cooling, transportation, healthcare, construction, and trade. However, the global energy system still depends on fossil fuels for 80% of its supply, making it central to the climate crisis.

Energy demand has historically risen alongside population growth and improving living standards. The world population is projected to increase by nearly 2 billion people between 2023 and 2050, which will deeply impact efforts to achieve the UN Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) aimed at enhancing prosperity, social well-being, and environmental protection.

Urgency of a Decarbonized Energy Transition

There is a pressing need to accelerate the shift to a low-carbon energy system. This must be done while maintaining sufficient energy supply to meet global demand and ensuring the transition is just, orderly, and equitable across energy systems.

"Energy is an essential resource, everywhere indispensable for living: for food, lighting, heating and cooling, transport, healthcare, construction and trade."

"The global energy system still relies 80% on fossil fuels."

"The global population is set to increase by almost 2 billion inhabitants between 2023 and 2050."

Author's summary: TotalEnergies develops a balanced multi-energy strategy to meet rising global energy needs and achieve carbon neutrality, focusing on an equitable, decarbonized transition amid population growth and environmental goals.
