The role technology plays
Our researchers, scientists and engineers research, develop and deploy technologies that help Shell to provide more and cleaner energy in a changing energy system.
The combination of more and cleaner energy is central to what Shell does today – and will do tomorrow. It’s not a question of one or the other, we want to provide both.
One of the ways we do this is through technology. Shell is built on125 years of technological innovation - and today, technology helps us to play a part in addressing climate change.
Technology is vital as Shell works to turn the challenges of today into the opportunities of tomorrow.
