Shell plc is pleased with the Dutch Court of Appeal's decision on November 12, 2024, which overturned a previous ruling that required the company to reduce net carbon emissions by 45% by 2030 compared to 2019 levels, affirming its strategy towards becoming a net-zero emissions energy business by 2050. Shell plans to invest $10-15 billion in low-carbon solutions from 2023 to 2025, having already spent $5.6 billion (23% of capital spending) in 2023 and reduced methane emissions by 70% since 2016.
