  • Engie paid record dividends of 4.1 billion euros to shareholders in 2023 and plans to pay 3.5 billion euros in 2024, which Reclaim Finance argues comes at the expense of exiting fossil gas.
  • The company is pursuing a gas expansion strategy that includes importing US shale gas through contracts extending beyond 2040 and developing new gas power plants in Chile, Belgium, and the Netherlands.
  • The planned gas power plant in Nijmegen, Netherlands, intended to operate until 2045, is viewed as incompatible with the 1.5°C warming limit and the Dutch government's goals to decarbonize electricity by 2035 and reach 95.5% renewables by 2040.
