According to the United Nations Global Compact-Accenture Strategy CEO study, about 72% of mining and metals CEOs agree that sustainability issues, including decarbonisation, are ‘very important’ or ‘important’ to the future success of their businesses (compared to just 54% across all industries).

Cameron Tandy | Managing Director | Resources | Accenture Africa | mail me | Oil and gas companies looking to establish winning positions in the decarbonisation transition and beyond cannot achieve that goal by themselves. They will need the help of their customers, particularly those that are heavily dependent on hydrocarbons, and adjacent sectors, and be part of developing the cross-sectoral actions. This will be a new and valuable role for the industry to play.

Cameron Tandy | Managing Director | Resources | Accenture Africa | mail me | To date, policymakers, regulators, the scientific community and even consumers have had to step in to close the economic gap between the hydrocarbon energy system and the low-carbon system. This transition is an energy system transition, not a supply-centric one, and it is distinguished by placing decarbonisation at the core.
