Adopting an integration approach to accelerate climate goal progress
As we near the end of 2023 with energy transition at the fore of the COP28 conference, it is a good opportunity to reflect on current actions being taken to reach net zero.

The UK North Sea oil industry may have reached its own Kodak moment, said Stuart Payne, a director at the sector’s regulator.
Innovative partnering between oil and gas, renewables, hydrogen and carbon capture can accelerate energy transition, says the UK’s Oil and Gas Authority (OGA).
Data is key to good decision making in all sectors of industry and society and the Technology Leadership Board Digital Technology Theme highlights the truly disruptive potential of digital technologies. As we move towards a net zero economy, only through exploiting cross sectoral data can we achieve the potential of digital technologies, thereby aiding a smooth and sustainable energy transition. Combining data from the oil and gas and the renewables sectors with the nascent hydrogen and carbon capture and storage (CCS) industries will provide a platform for the best decision making. At the National Decommissioning Centre (NDC) we are initiating several projects which will help deliver this.
The chief executive of the Oil and Gas Authority (OGA) has claimed the UK’s goals for a crucial new climate change technology are “remarkably achievable”.
