BP likely to drop its renewable energy targets
Renewable energy production is expected to become less of a priority for BP, while the commitment to reduce oil and gas production may be officially abandoned.
When presenting its strategy to investors on February 26, BP will drop its commitment to increase renewable energy production by 2030.
Instead, the company will set an annual percentage growth target.
- Cutting low-carbon investments : BP plans to divest assets and cut low-carbon investments to reduce debt and boost returns. Following CEO Bernard Looney’s 2023 departure, shares slumped, and 2024 profits fell to $8.9bn (€8.5bn) from $14bn (€13.3bn) in 2023.<
- Targets to reduce oil and gas : BP has repeatedly scaled back sustainability targets, cutting its 2030 oil and gas reduction goal from 40% to 25% in 2023 due to Russia’s invasion of Ukraine and Europe’s energy crisis. Now, it is expected to abandon the target entirely.

“ Two types of choices seem to me to have been crucial in tipping the outcomes [of the various societies' histories] towards success or failure: long-term planning and willingness to reconsider core values. On reflection we can also recognize the crucial role of these same two choices for the outcomes of our individual lives. – (Jared Diamond). ”

Collapsology refers to the potential collapse of our industrialized civilization, as it is currently threatened by environmental, economic, and social upheaval.
In this article, we’ll explain what collapsology is, how it is threatened by climate change, and how we could avoid it.
