Winds of change: Shell ditches renewable stake amid fears of a retreat to carbons
The future of the world’s largest offshore wind farm and a symbol of Britain’s renewable energy future was thrown into doubt last night after it emerged that Shell was backing out of the project and indicated it would prefer to invest in more lucrative oil schemes.
Shell said the decision to sell its 33% stake in the £2bn London Array off the coast of Kent was part of an “ongoing review of projects and investment choices” and was not part of any major rethink about renewables versus other oil and gas projects.
