Petroleum Transition Pathways in Norway
Summary
The report outlines two pathway scenarios for the Norwegian oil and gas sector's transition to net-zero, developed through a 'backcasting' exercise with policy makers, businesses, and civil society. While there is general acceptance of a 2050 net-zero goal, the document notes that achieving this via a science-based approach requires deep global energy system transformations and concerted efforts from the Norwegian government and other social actors.
Key insights
- Stakeholders from the Norwegian oil and gas industry, including policy makers, businesses, and civil society, generally accept the goal of reaching net-zero emissions by 2050.
- Achieving a science-based net-zero goal requires significant transformations of the global energy system and coordinated action from the Norwegian government and other social entities.
