Shell International Petroleum Co. Ltd. and Microsoft Corp. said
they are working together to address carbon emissions.
The companies said the alliance, building on decades of
technology collaboration, will support Shell's ambition to be a
net-zero emissions energy business by 2050.
Shell will supply Microsoft with renewable energy, helping
Microsoft to meet its commitment to having a 100% supply of
renewable energy by 2025.
The companies said they will continue working together on
artificial intelligence to contribute to worker and onsite safety
and deliver efficiencies to reduce Shell's carbon emissions.
Shell and Microsoft said they will work together on new digital
tools for Shell to offer its suppliers and customers support in
reducing their carbon footprints and will explore working together
to help advance the use of sustainable aviation fuels.
The companies said they will use Microsoft's Azure cloud
computing system and data from Shell assets to strengthen
operational safety, by improving risk analysis, prediction and
prevention.
