8Exxon projects less than 10% plug-in-hybrid and electric vehicles (PHV/EV) by 2040, while companies such as Shell and BP offering a vague projection of renewables powering less than 10% of all transport by 2035/2040.
8The ten oil and gas companies are working with a renewables market share of global electric power of between 10% (Exxon) and 33% (Eni) by 2040.
8This compares with the IPCC's projection of “more than 80%” share for low-carbon energy in the electricity sector by 2050.
