An analysis of near-term spending plans on renewables by the biggest oil and gas companies shows that real investments in renewable energy will continue to pale in comparison to capex plans for greenfield fossil fuel projects. Equinor has announced plans to invest $10B into clean energy by 2025, mostly through its offshore wind portfolio.
