Renewables & electricity

In the UK, we’re making major investments in electricity from renewable sources and are developing offshore wind projects that can deliver over 5 GW of renewable power this decade.

Our Seagreen project (1.1 GW) off the east coast of Scotland provides enough green energy to power up to 1.6 million UK homes.

We’re developing the Erebus floating offshore wind farm off the coast of Wales, Outer Dowsing (1.15 GW) off the Lincolnshire coast, and the West of Orkney wind farm (2 GW) in the north of Scotland, as well as around 600 MW of solar projects across the UK.

As part of our integrated power strategy in the UK, we’ve also acquired the West Burton B gas-fired power plant in England. With total output of 1.3 GW, the plant is a highly flexible and efficient asset which provides energy on demand and mitigates the intermittency challenges of renewable power sources.

Saft, the leading battery company, is a wholly owned subsidiary of TotalEnergies and also operates a plant in the UK.

Exploration & Production

We are one of the largest operators in the UK Continental Shelf. Our production is over 70% gas, a key fuel in the energy transition.

We have a strong portfolio of assets located offshore in three major zones of the North Sea:

  • The Alwyn/Dunbar area in the Northern North Sea,
  • The Elgin/Franklin and Culzean areas in the Central North Sea, and
  • The Laggan-Tormore hub in the West of Shetland area.

We are working hard to reduce our emissions from our North Sea platforms to produce hydrocarbons as cleanly as possible, whilst still contributing to the country's security of energy supply.

Specialty, petroleum and bio-based products

At our production plant in Ferrybridge, West Yorkshire, we manufacture, market and distribute lubricants for more than 400 industrial applications, including use in aviation. We also operate a dedicated bitumen plant in Preston, Lancashire.

We are increasing the energy efficiency of our lubricants and solvents and introducing new product ranges that use renewable biopolymers.
