The industrialised world&#8217;s energy watchdog has shifted its focus on traditional oil and gas supply security to championing renewables and climate action \u2014 and for some at the gathering, this undermines its role as an impartial energy authority.<\/p>\n<p>Top OPEC+ oil producers, international oil company executives and some analysts have, however, questioned the IEA&#8217;s recent policy recommendations and its interpretation of the oil market data it collects from its 31 member nations.That was triggered by a controversial 2021 IEA report in which the agency said there should be no investment in new oil, gas and coal projects if the world was serious about meeting climate targets.<\/p>\n<p>Crammed over two days into the historic Chateau de la Muette in Paris \u2014 on grounds where Marie Antoinette once walked freely among her people \u2014 some attendees praised the architect of the IEA&#8217;s green pivot, Fatih Birol. &#8220;Thanks to the genuinely extraordinary job Fatih has been doing, the IEA is now probably the principal arbiter &#8230; with respect to our policies,&#8221; said outgoing U.S. Special Presidential Envoy for Climate John Kerry.<\/p>\n<p>Since his 2015 appointment, Birol \u2014 who once worked at the Organization of the Petroleum Exporting Countries \u2014 has piloted the revamp in which the IEA&#8217;s agency scenarios now project oil, gas, and coal demand to peak by 2030. The turnaround in his message was swift. Is recently as 2017, Birol urged a Houston conference hall full of U.S. shale oil executives to &#8220;invest, invest, invest&#8221; to extract 670 billion barrels of new oil by 2040.<\/p>\n<p>By 2021, however, Birol shocked the energy world when he said &#8220;if governments are serious about the climate crisis, there can be no new investments in oil, gas and coal, from now \u2013 from this year.&#8221; Birol&#8217;s change in message coincided with the change in U.S. government to President Joe Biden&#8217;s climate agenda from former President Donald Trump&#8217;s pro-fossil fuel policies. If Trump wins the U.S. presidential election this year, Birol and the IEA may face pressure from its top backer to change the message.<\/p>\n<p><a rel=\"noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.reuters.com\/business\/energy\/going-green-50-iea-climate-pivot-debated-anniversary-meeting-2024-02-15\/\">Read more&gt;&gt;<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Source:<a rel=\"noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.reuters.com\/business\/energy\/going-green-50-iea-climate-pivot-debated-anniversary-meeting-2024-02-15\/\"> Reuters<\/a> <\/div>\n<p>The post <a rel=\"noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/vastuullisuusuutiset.fi\/fi\/csr-news-en\/going-green-at-50-iea-climate-pivot-debated-at-anniversary-meeting\/\">Going green at 50?
