US Paris exit sparks concern but also climate unity
US Paris exit sparks concern but also climate unity
London, 24 January (Argus) — Governments, companies and scientists have expressed concern at President Donald Trump's decision to withdraw the US from the Paris climate agreement, but have committed to continue with plans to decarbonise and drive forward the energy transition. "It's not a complete halt of the efforts but it's definitely a concerning moment," director of the Potsdam Institute for Climate Impact Research Johan Rockstrom told delegates this week at the World Economic Forum (WEF) in Davos, Switzerland. "The nervousness is what spillover effects this can have on other countries in the world and that in turn can end up in a serious slowdown of efforts. I'm thinking of Saudi Arabia, I'm thinking of Argentina, I'm thinking of some of the more populist governments now in Europe," Rockstrom added. Action on climate change is competing for space on policymakers' agendas with geopolitical turmoil — war in Ukraine and the Middle East — as well as economic challenges. "We're in a state of crisis fatigue… we only seem to have an attention span for one crisis at a time, so as this polycrisis environment that we've been in for the last few years… climate has been pushed down that crisis priority list, but… science behind climate hasn't changed. The impacts actually have changed in that they're simply getting worse", executive secretary of UN climate body the UNFCCC Simon Stiell said in Davos. In response to Trump's decision to pull the UK out of the Paris accord , the EU and China immediately committed to continue with their action on climate change , and both underlined the importance of multilateralism. "I want to be very clear with my message. Europe stays the course, and we stand ready to work with all global actors to accelerate the transition to clean energy," European Commission president Ursula von der Leyen said. Transition is ‘unstoppable' Many speakers in Davos noted that the energy transition to renewables is well underway, and has advanced rapidly since Trump's first term in office. "The world is undergoing an energy transition that is unstoppable," Stiell said. Several private-sector representatives attending the WEF embraced the energy transition, pointing to increased efficiency and cost savings. "I haven't found one single area where climate smart wouldn't be resource smart and cost smart," Ikea chief executive Jesper Brodin said. "Technology will win the day in the end", Volvo Cars chief executive Jim Rowan said. The consensus from a CEO lunch during the WEF was that "we are not deviating from the plans we have. We're staying on track. We're moving on a decarbonisation path, we're electrifying our industry, we're not going to be shaken up by what's happening," Rockstrom said. Within the US, action to decarbonise looks set to consolidate beyond federal level. A group of 24 US state and territorial governors have assured the UNFCCC of their continued climate action. And Bloomberg Philanthropies this week said it would step in to cover the US' financial obligations to the UNFCCC, as well as support the country's climate reporting. The long-term realities of a heating world overshadow the relatively short-term politics. "It is one of the most challenging things we will be facing in the decades to come, and the effects are devastating," EU climate commissioner Wopke Hoekstra said this week. Extreme heat is projected to cause $2.4 trillion/yr in productivity losses by 2035, as well as $448 bn/yr in fixed-asset losses for publicly listed companies, financial services provider Allianz said. The US in particular has been hit hard by catastrophic weather events — proven to be exacerbated by climate change — in recent months. California governor Gavin Newsom pointed to wildfires, which have this month devastated swathes of Los Angeles. "If you don't believe in science, believe your own damn eyes," Newsom said.

S Australia gets OK to use diesel generators for backup
S Australia gets OK to use diesel generators for backup
Adelaide, 24 January (Argus) — Australian federal energy regulator has approved a South Australian (SA) state government bid to temporarily change regulations, ordering two diesel-fired generators in the state to remain available for back-up electricity supply. French utility Engie last year said it would mothball the 63MW Snuggery and 75MW Port Lincoln generators. The SA's Labor energy minister opposed this, and last month wrote to the Australian Energy Market Commission (AEMC) to request the Australian Energy Market Operator (Aemo) be given powers to direct this capacity into the market if supply is threatened. The rule change will be enforced until 31 March, and will help secure SA's electricity supply this summer, the AEMC said on 23 January. SA could face load-shedding during cases of reliability shortfalls, especially during extreme weather, without sufficient backup reserves. No objections were received during the fast-tracked process, the AEMC said. SA is highly dependent on renewable power such as solar and wind, especially after closing its last coal plants in the last decade. Its sole connection to the national electricity market is via links to Victoria state. The 800MW EnergyConnect electricity transmission link to New South Wales is still under construction and has been delayed until July 2027, from an original guidance of 2023. About 72pc of SA's power consumption was from renewable sources last year, with gas contributing 24pc and imports from Victoria making up 10pc, leaving the state vulnerable to outages if this connection is damaged. But backup generators are costly to maintain as cheap renewable energy floods the grid, leaving governments stuck between subsidising fossil-fuelled plants or facing politically and economically damaging interruptions to supply.

Fewer, smaller shale deals in 2025: Enverus
Fewer, smaller shale deals in 2025: Enverus
New York, 23 January (Argus) — After $300bn of consolidation in the US oil and gas industry over the past two years, deal making is set to fall in 2025 while breakeven prices for acquired inventory will likely rise, according to consultancy Enverus. The rapid pace of mergers and acquisitions targeting shale-based assets has led to many of the best targets having been snapped up. As a result, the quality of newly acquired inventory is declining, averaging a $50/bl breakeven price in 2024, up from $45/bl in 2022-23, Enverus calculates. "The pool of available remaining private equity assets is largely smaller, higher on the cost curve or both," Enverus said in its annual outlook. Yet a pressing need for scale and future of location inventory will encourage smaller producers to embark upon more deals. And improved efficiencies — such as drilling longer lateral wells — will be key in boosting economics on more marginal acreage. Mergers involving public companies will ease up in 2025 from a recent average of five a year, according to Enverus. While deals involving smaller producers may offer suppressed valuations relative to private opportunities, a potential lack of a strategic fit and agreement on future management teams may pose obstacles.

Bloomberg to fund UN climate body in lieu of US
Bloomberg to fund UN climate body in lieu of US
London, 23 January (Argus) — Bloomberg Philanthropies and "other US climate funders" will ensure that the US meets its funding and reporting obligations to UN climate body the UNFCCC, after President Trump withdrew the country from the Paris climate agreement earlier this week. This is the second time that Bloomberg Philanthropies has "stepped in to help uphold [the US'] funding and reporting commitments… amid a lack of US federal climate leadership", the organisation said today. Trump pulled the US out of the Paris accord in his first term as US president, although then-President Joe Biden signed the agreement once more in early 2021. Bloomberg will "work to ensure US subnational climate leaders track and report on US climate progress over the next four years", the organisation said today. "Bloomberg Philanthropies has made significant investments in empowering local leaders, providing businesses with the data to track emissions while driving economic growth, and building coalitions across public and private sectors", founder Michael Bloomberg said. He is also a UN special envoy on climate ambition. UNFCCC executive secretary Simon Stiell welcomed the support, also noting that "government funding remains essential" for the climate body. The finance referred to is not the international climate finance often discussed at UNFCCC talks, but funding which helps the climate body operate and host events such as the annual Cop climate summits. It appears likely that the previous US administration had foreseen a lack of financial contributions from the Trump government. The US last year paid its arrears for the UNFCCC core budget in full — just under €3.4mn ($3.5mn) — leaving it in a minority of countries with no outstanding payments, UNFCCC accounts show. The US also contributed just under €7.3mn for 2024 — 22pc of the total contributed — again for the body's core budget, UNFCCC accounts show. Bloomberg Philanthropies contributed $4.5mn to the UNFCCC in 2024 for "supplementary activities", while the US provided $2.74mn, UNFCCC accounts show. Trump, in one of his first acts upon returning to office, on 20 January ordered the US to withdraw from the Paris agreement. That decision will take effect one year after the US gives formal notice to the UNFCCC. By Georgia Gratton Send comments and request more information at feedback@argusmedia.com Copyright © 2025.
