Shell has paused construction on a biofuels plant in Rotterdam due to weak market conditions, raising concerns about its commitment to renewable energy.

Shell will pause on-site construction work at a biofuels plant in Rotterdam amid weak market conditions, the supermajor said on Tuesday, as international oil firms continue to re-evaluate their low-carbon energy projects.

Last month, the other UK-based supermajor, BP, said that it is scaling back plans for the development of new sustainable aviation fuel SAF and renewable diesel biofuels projects at its existing sites, pausing planning for two potential projects while continuing to assess three for progression. Earlier this year, Shell reaffirmed its ambitions to be a net-zero energy business by 2050 but eased its carbon intensity target for 2030 as it has shifted away from clean power sales to retail customers.
