Shell is one of the world's largest mobility retailers by number of sites, with more than 47,000 Shell-branded mobility locations in more than 80 markets at the end of 2023. We operate different models across these markets, from full ownership of sites to brand licensing agreements. As we aim to high-grade our network, we plan to divest around 500 Shell-owned sites (including joint ventures) each year until 2025. Every day, around 33 million retail customers visit our mobility locations for a range of quality fuels, electric vehicle charging, and convenience and non-fuel products and services. Through Shell Fleet Solutions, our business customers can obtain fuel cards, road services and carbon-offset offers, among other products and services. We are expanding our convenience and non-fuel retail offer to cater to our customers' needs. At many of our sites, we offer convenience items, including beverages and fresh food, and services such as lubricant changes and car washes. At the end of 2023, Shell operated 13,000 convenience stores worldwide. We have upgraded close to 2,000 stores with our Shell Café premium fresh coffee and food offer since launching in 2021. Shell Mobility aims to take a leadership position in the energy transition by marketing more and cleaner fuels for our customers, focusing on growing our presence in key markets like China, Europe and the USA. To support this, we acquired Volta Inc. in 2023 and now own and operate one of the largest public electric vehicle charging networks in the USA. At the end of 2023, Shell had around 54,000 public charge points globally at Shell forecourts, on-street locations, mobility hubs and other sites, such as supermarkets. Shell opened its largest electric vehicle charging station in the world in Shenzhen, China, with 258 public fast-charging points. We opened our largest electric vehicle (EV) charging station globally in Shenzhen, China, in September 2023. The Shell Recharge Shenzhen Airport EV Station is designed to serve thousands of drivers every day with 258 fast-charging points in one of the country's major economic and technology hubs. China is one of the most important growth markets for Shell Mobility and will play a key role in Shell's electric vehicle charging strategy which is to continue building the infrastructure needed to meet our customers' future demand for charging. Globally, we are focusing on public charging and we expect to increase our charge points to around 200,000 by 2030. The Shenzhen charging station – operated by Shell and BYD Electric Vehicle Investment Company Limited, a joint venture between Shell and Chinese electric vehicle manufacturer BYD – served more than 3,300 electric vehicles a day during its trial operation. The rooftop solar panels installed at the Shenzhen station have the capacity to generate about 300,000 kilowatt-hours of renewable electricity per year, and this would be available to charge customers' vehicles. In addition to charging, the station also offers convenience retailing, food and beverages, and a drivers' lounge. Through joint ventures and wholly owned enterprises, Shell in China operates a retailing network of around 2,000 fuel stations and an electric vehicle charging network of 25,000 public charge points. The utilisation rate of our electric vehicle chargers in all of China was around 25% in 2023, which is two-and-a-half times the industry average. Shell offers products and services to meet the different energy and mobility needs of drivers. In September 2023, we opened the Panlong Integrated Energy Station in Wuhan. This station offers petrol and diesel, charging and hydrogen refuelling. As we work to provide more low-carbon alternatives to our customers, we continue to develop traditional fuels for drivers of internal combustion engine vehicles. Aided by our partnership with Scuderia Ferrari, we have concentrated on developing fuels with special formulations designed to clean engines and improve performance. We sold fuels under the Shell V-Power brand in 68 markets in 2023. Shell Commercial Road Transport (CRT) provides fuels, lubricants and digital services to customers with heavy-duty vehicles in their fleets. In 2023, Shell opened its first public electric vehicle charging facility for trucks in Hamburg, Germany. This consists of four fast-charging stations, and multiple eDepot solutions, which provide charging facilities at customer sites. We also offer drivers using heavy-duty LNG-fuelled trucks access to operated and partner networks in Europe. In 2023 we opened our first LNG refuelling sites in Austria and Hungary. In Germany, Shell is building a bioLNG liquefaction plant at Shell's Energy and Chemicals Park Rheinland. This liquefaction plant will supply the German market with bioLNG from 2024 and will help our CRT customers decarbonise their operations. Since 2022, Shell's customers in the Netherlands have been able to receive a bioLNG blend. Shell Lubricants has been the num

In the context of ESG ratings, one would expect a company at the forefront of electric vehicle (EV) innovation, like Tesla, to boast a stellar score, far surpassing that of a fossil fuel giant such as Shell. However, reality presents a different picture. Tesla, widely regarded as the automotive leader of the clean energy transition, paradoxically finds itself trailing behind Shell on ESG scores. Intuitively, this is hard to comprehend, especially when you consider that the global fleet of Tesla vehicles, energy storage and solar panels enabled its customers to avoid emitting 8.4 million metric tons of CO2e in 2021, while Shell made an annual gross profit of $72.5bn out of poisoning the environment. To make sense of this, it’s worth digging deeper into how ESG scores are constructed. The S&P Global ESG Score is an aggregate measure of a company’s sustainability performance derived by combining the Environmental (E), Social (S), and Governance (G) dimension scores, with each dimension’s weight determined by its significance within a specific sub-industry. These individual scores usually fall within a scale of 0 to 100, where a score below 50 is generally viewed as poor, while a score exceeding 70 is considered respectable. In 2021, Tesla’s ESG score was 27, while Shell’s rating amounted to an impressive figure of 65, according to the S&P 500. This disparity was reduced considerably in 2022 as Shell’s score dropped to 41 and Tesla’s improved to 37. In this context, some argue that Tesla might be forgetting something, ESG is not only about producing environmentally focused products, the two other legs of the stool, the social and governance dimensions of the concept, also require attention. Although it does considerably well on the E, Tesla has received criticism for neglecting the S and the G. In an interview with GlobalData, Ty Francis, the Chief Advisory Officer of LRN, an ethics & compliance advisory firm, asked: “What happened when the rating agencies looked at Tesla? Tesla has faced accusations of racism and poor working conditions, especially in the California plant. They looked at executive pay, they looked at their internal controls. And Tesla historically, has faced, you know, a lot of governance issues. “I think the elephant in the room is their CEO, his behaviour as a CEO, that is communications, not just at Tesla, but also at X [formerly Twitter]. He is facing regulatory fines, he is facing the SEC, for disclosing non-public information, artificially inflating the stock price of Tesla by saying, you know, we’re going to produce 500,000 cars, when in fact, he then corrected that, so it’s going to be 400,000.” “At that moment, the problem is, it’s not particularly environmentally friendly to make the batteries and then dispose of the batteries. You know, you look at conflict, mineral mining, at how Cobalt is mined in different countries, within those countries, how its mining has labour issues and human capital issues. Are workers treated fairly? So, the ecosystem of power electric cars made is more complicated than the fact that it doesn’t have fumes coming out the back of it”, he added. When asked about the importance of governance for ESG, Ty replied: “How important is governance across the board? Governance has been around for a long time; environmental concerns are a relatively new concern in the industry. In the 1940s, people weren’t worried about climate change. However, they did have governance structures in their companies, to make sure that their boards of directors, or their C-suites managed the company correctly, they had fiduciary duties, to ensure that they were doing things in the best interest of the company, the shareholders, the stakeholders, the governance has always been the overarching foundation for how companies should operate.” On the other hand, Shell’s governance is rather impeccable, he notes: “Transparency is a big thing as well, when you look at companies, you know, shell, even though it seems to be fossil fuels, you know, archaic dinosaurs, it’s been very transparent. It’s very proactive and reports, its environmental, social and governance issues and practices. It lays out plans, it’s very clear from Shell that it is trying to transition from fossil fuels to cleaner energy”. He concluded: “So really, if you boil it down, Tesla didn’t have a very transparent or low carbon strategy. It didn’t have a particularly robust Code of Business Conduct. And his track record on human rights and environmental issues is very poor. So, when you add all those together it’s pretty clear, that when you dig down, that Shell would have a higher rating. But again, it’s about context. It doesn’t mean that Shell is a better company. But the factors and disclosures it’s being measured by at that point worked in the favour of Shell.” I would like to highlight the fact that a higher ESG rating does not necessarily entail that “Shell is a better company”, particularly if you are looki

► We talk to Shell Mobility’s global sustainability manager ► Forecourts reducing their environmental impact ► Shell is targeting net zero emissions by 2050 Shell has 46,000 service stations around the world, including more than 1000 in the UK. Fiona Varley, Shell Mobility’s global sustainability manager, is part of the team helping service stations reduce their environmental impact and encouraging customers to decarbonise their journeys too. ‘For Shell to meet its net zero emissions targets, we need to take steps to reduce the carbon footprint and environmental impact of our service stations,’ says Fiona. ‘It’s about electric cars, energy usage, plastics, packaging and recycling. My role is to help make our ambition a reality.’ Shell is aiming to reduce its forecourts’ impact, cut emissions and drive the circular economy across the network through a number of activities. Most of them are showcased at Shell Recharge Fulham Road (pictured), the company’s first all-electric charging hub which opened in December 2021. Many of the learnings and good practices from this site are being applied elsewhere in its network. Shell has more than 500 charging points on its UK forecourts, including ten 175kW ultrarapid chargers at its Fulham EV hub. But that’s just the start. ‘We have big ambitions. By 2030, we aim to have 100,000 chargers in place, this will mean that 90 per cent of UK drivers will be within 10 minutes of a Shell rapid charger. 11,000 of these will be rapid chargers at convenient locations including chosen supermarket partners. It’s not just about the location, it’s also about the experience and we are always evaluating this so it’s as positive as possible for customers’ says Fiona. Shell plans to open more EV hubs in the future as well as installing new charging points on existing forecourts and up to 800 more in as many as 100 Waitrose shops across the UK by 2025. As of March 2023, Shell Recharge Solutions provides 20,000 public charging points, including over 6500 on-street chargers through its subsidiary ubitricity. Watch the video of our 484-mile electric road trip across the UK Shell Recharge Fulham Road features solar panels in its forecourt canopy, contributing between 30-40% of the shop’s electricity needs. ‘We’re installing solar panels as standard now on service stations undergoing redevelopment, as well as any new ones we build. It will be a gradual process phasing them in over the next few years,’ says Shell’s global sustainability manager. ‘We’ve also got low carbon bitumen forecourts and double glazing at some of our shops to help reduce the energy usage,’ says Fiona Varley. Look closely and you’ll spot that the Fulham site’s canopies are made of timber, sourced from sustainable forests, bonded together. The twin structures were prefabricated before being transported to the site, a more energy efficient process than welding steel overhead. While this is only on one site, many of the innovations will be incorporated into Shell’s future network. Unsurprisingly, Shell Recharge Fulham’s solar panels can’t provide the massive power output needed to supply ten 175kW chargers. However, all electricity used by the site including for the chargers, is 100% certified renewable because it’s backed by Renewable Energy Guarantees of Origin. That means every watt Shell purchases is matched with the equivalent amount of units from entirely renewable sources in the UK. This is also the case for all Shell Recharge locations in the UK. You won’t find any single use plastic coffee stirrers, straws or carrier bags on Shell’s company owned UK forecourts. Additionally, Shell is looking to change its packaging to be recyclable and contain recycled materials where possible. These service stations segregate waste such as cardboard and plastic to be recycled, and work with waste management companies to achieve zero waste to landfill. All of Shell UK’s company-owned forecourts have recycling bins, giving customers the opportunity to recycle their plastic bottles and drinks cans on the go. Some Shell service stations offer water fountains to refill bottles and help reduce waste. The company is ramping up its forecourt signage to help customers understand the steps Shell is taking to make a difference and encouraging customers to go on the journey with them. Fancy buying tonight’s dinner at a reduced price because the food is nearing its shelf life? At many of Shell’s forecourts you can, thanks to its participation in the Too Good To Go scheme. ‘We’ve joined the partnership to try to reduce the amount of food going to waste,’ says Shell’s sustainability expert. Customers can check their app to see what’s available nearby, collecting it in ‘Magic Bags’. The scheme is running at more than 90 Shell service stations, and in 2022 this partnership saved 85,000 meals. Shell’s first EV only hub – Shell Recharge Fulham Road – has an intelligent energy management system that monitors and controls the consump

Shell is one of the world's largest mobility retailers by number of sites, with more than 47,000 Shell-branded mobility locations in more than 80 markets at the end of 2023. We operate different models across these markets, from full ownership of sites to brand licensing agreements. As we aim to high-grade our network, we plan to divest around 500 Shell-owned sites (including joint ventures) each year until 2025. Every day, around 33 million retail customers visit our mobility locations for a range of quality fuels, electric vehicle charging, and convenience and non-fuel products and services. Through Shell Fleet Solutions, our business customers can obtain fuel cards, road services and carbon-offset offers, among other products and services. We are expanding our convenience and non-fuel retail offer to cater to our customers' needs. At many of our sites, we offer convenience items, including beverages and fresh food, and services such as lubricant changes and car washes. At the end of 2023, Shell operated 13,000 convenience stores worldwide. We have upgraded close to 2,000 stores with our Shell Café premium fresh coffee and food offer since launching in 2021. Shell Mobility aims to take a leadership position in the energy transition by marketing more and cleaner fuels for our customers, focusing on growing our presence in key markets like China, Europe and the USA. To support this, we acquired Volta Inc. in 2023 and now own and operate one of the largest public electric vehicle charging networks in the USA. At the end of 2023, Shell had around 54,000 public charge points globally at Shell forecourts, on-street locations, mobility hubs and other sites, such as supermarkets. Shell opened its largest electric vehicle charging station in the world in Shenzhen, China, with 258 public fast-charging points. We opened our largest electric vehicle (EV) charging station globally in Shenzhen, China, in September 2023. The Shell Recharge Shenzhen Airport EV Station is designed to serve thousands of drivers every day with 258 fast-charging points in one of the country's major economic and technology hubs. China is one of the most important growth markets for Shell Mobility and will play a key role in Shell's electric vehicle charging strategy which is to continue building the infrastructure needed to meet our customers' future demand for charging. Globally, we are focusing on public charging and we expect to increase our charge points to around 200,000 by 2030. The Shenzhen charging station – operated by Shell and BYD Electric Vehicle Investment Company Limited, a joint venture between Shell and Chinese electric vehicle manufacturer BYD – served more than 3,300 electric vehicles a day during its trial operation. The rooftop solar panels installed at the Shenzhen station have the capacity to generate about 300,000 kilowatt-hours of renewable electricity per year, and this would be available to charge customers' vehicles. In addition to charging, the station also offers convenience retailing, food and beverages, and a drivers' lounge. Through joint ventures and wholly owned enterprises, Shell in China operates a retailing network of around 2,000 fuel stations and an electric vehicle charging network of 25,000 public charge points. The utilisation rate of our electric vehicle chargers in all of China was around 25% in 2023, which is two-and-a-half times the industry average. Shell offers products and services to meet the different energy and mobility needs of drivers. In September 2023, we opened the Panlong Integrated Energy Station in Wuhan. This station offers petrol and diesel, charging and hydrogen refuelling. As we work to provide more low-carbon alternatives to our customers, we continue to develop traditional fuels for drivers of internal combustion engine vehicles. Aided by our partnership with Scuderia Ferrari, we have concentrated on developing fuels with special formulations designed to clean engines and improve performance. We sold fuels under the Shell V-Power brand in 68 markets in 2023.

Royal Dutch Shell, one of the world’s largest oil and gas companies, staked a claim on the North American electric mobility market when it bought one of the leading companies in the space early this year. For charging network company Greenlots, which built itself up with less than $25 million* raised, the new corporate parent offers capital for rapid expansion. For Shell’s New Energies Division, the startup will lead an effort to penetrate the emerging market for electric mobility, creating a new revenue stream even as the old one centered on gasoline faces long-term headwinds. “It will be about putting charge points on Shell gas stations, but it’s a lot bigger than that,” said Matthew Tipper, VP for new fuels at Shell, in a February interview. “There are going to be many routes to market in terms of providing EV infrastructure to consumers.” Working with large enterprise customers, rather than individual consumers, will be the company's beachhead market. In Europe, Shell owns many of its gas stations, and can move quickly if it wants to add electric chargers. In the U.S., the model is different: 14,000 independent owner-operators pay to sell fuels under the Shell brand, the company confirmed. Those franchises will have to decide for themselves how to proceed. Still, Shell plans to launch electric fast-charging options at numerous Shell-branded U.S. retail outlets in the next five years, spokesperson Natalie Gunnell noted. "We aspire to provide EV drivers the same exceptional customer experience that they have now when filling up with traditional fuels," she said. Individual public charging makes for a tough business, though, at least until the population of drivers grows enough to justify the capital investment. The systems cost the same to build whether they get used once a day or 20 times. Early adopters also tend to have the option of charging at home, reducing demand for public charging. "When we examine the profitability of public chargers, the majority of stations don't make money," said Ben Kellison, grid edge research director at Wood Mackenzie Power & Renewables. "DC fast chargers in particular need much higher utilization before they make money due to local demand charges." Contracts with fleet owners can alleviate much of the utilization risk, offering a way to guarantee revenue as EV adoption and subsequent demand for public chargers grows, he added. “The more scalable opportunity is with corporates, municipalities, utilities,” Tipper said. “You can convert whole cities to EV charging. Working with corporates, we can convert whole companies.” Such contracts could bundle with other capabilities Shell already has, like large-scale wind and solar development. With sufficient coordination among disparate business units, which can be easier said than done, the company could market a corporate fleet charging network powered by clean energy credits. Shell's acquisition of home energy storage company sonnen, just weeks after Greenlots, throws batteries into the mix, which could manage the demand spikes that come from several vehicles charging at once. For customers with demand charges, charging load could lead to prohibitive bill increases. Energy storage could also limit a charging station’s pull from the distribution grid in a way that avoids time-intensive grid upgrades. Shell isn't sharing a firm timeline for when this robust vision of fleetwide charging will hit the U.S. market. Coordination is further along in Europe, where it acquired charging company NewMotion back in 2017. With New Energies assigned to spend $1 billion to $2 billion in clean energy each year, further cross-pollination among startups is likely to emerge. “You’re going to see Shell gradually filling in its matrix of opportunities through acquisition,” Tipper said. “I would expect to see this pattern continue so we can actually build synergies between these different models.” The Greenlots acquisition builds on the NewMotion deal in Europe. Shell indicated at the time it would introduce chargers at European gas stations. NewMotion’s Euro-centric business model focused more on owning and operating charging stations, Tipper said. Greenlots offered an entrance into North America, with a different business model emphasis. “What intrigued me about Greenlots is they’re essentially a software company that is developing a tool to provide turnkey networks to any commercial enterprise that wants to have its own private or semi-private charging network,” Tipper said. “Rather than an owner-operator, it’s a technology company.” Talks began between the two nearly a year ago. Shell, which has experimented with EV charging in California for several years, was impressed that Greenlots had earned the position of approved EV charging vendor with major utilities in that state. “We know how difficult it is to establish that presence in the market,” Tipper said. It didn’t hurt that Greenlots had built a scrappy operation of nea
