Energy efficiency

In road transport, up to 80 per cent of fuel is lost as heat. And it has been suggested that if China's coal-fired power plants had the same efficiency as the average plant in Japan today, China would use 20 per cent less coal. Scientific and technical developments enabling the more efficient use of energy will play a key role in curbing the rising energy demand and in managing CO2 levels in the atmosphere, and are generating solutions where Shell can produce energy more efficiently.

Lubricants

When it comes to energy-efficient lubricants for vehicles, it’s all about improving fuel economy. And our latest development - Shell Rimula R6 LME - does just that.
