Helping energy major accelerate decarbonisation in hard-to-abate sectors

Developed and refined low-carbon offerings while building cross-sector partnerships to help achieve product emissions reduction and support customer decarbonisation.

The client has committed to becoming a net-zero-carbon company by 2050. This involves an ambitious target of reducing the carbon footprint of their products by 65% while supporting their customers in addressing the remaining 35% through decarbonisation initiatives. In its journey to achieve such a landmark transformation, the client is seeking to strengthen its market position as a world leader in solving complex energy sector challenges while building deeper relationships across steel and cement value chains. With this background, the client has engaged Xynteo to develop and refine their decarbonisation offerings while facilitating collaboration across multiple stakeholder groups.
