    Today, we are proud to announce the signing of the first three contracts under Hydrogen Allocation Round 1 (HAR1), a pivotal step in our journey to Net Zero. These first of 11 Hydrogen projects under HAR1 will help fuel hard-to-abate sectors such as heavy transport and manufacturing, driving economic growth and reducing emissions. Fostering progress in key industrial regions across Britain, HAR1 represents a pivotal moment in delivering on the government's Net Zero ambitions. Together, we are helping to turn policy into action, driving forward a sustainable energy transition. Industry Minister Sarah Jones said: “On the heels of the recent launch of the UK's carbon capture and storage sector, we're moving swiftly to develop the infrastructure necessary for Net Zero while creating good jobs and developing the skills of the future. These projects are helping our mission to make Britain a clean energy superpower, ensuring hydrogen will become an important part of the UK’s future energy mix.” Neil McDermott, Chief Executive at LCCC said:   "We are proud to sign the first three of these pioneering contracts under Hydrogen Allocation Round 1 (HAR1) that will enable the production of 31.8MW of low carbon hydrogen. This milestone signifies our commitment to accelerating Britain’s journey towards a Net Zero future and underscores our pivotal role in delivering transformative projects, utilising cutting-edge technology, that drives decarbonisation. We are eager to partner with our new stakeholders to deliver these groundbreaking projects." Clare Jackson, CEO at Hydrogen UK said: "Signed contracts for these first three projects is a landmark achievement for the UK hydrogen sector. It demonstrates the confidence and commitment of both Government and industry in building a sustainable hydrogen sector. We look forward to maintaining this momentum and ensuring that the remaining eight projects progress swiftly. With full focus in January, we can build on these first projects and deliver a thriving hydrogen industry which will be vital for meeting the UK’s Net Zero targets, driving economic growth, and creating jobs.” Read more here ➡️ https://lnkd.in/eyrSVjn6 #HAR1 #Hydrogen #Renewableenergy #NetZero

    Influence is exerted in many ways across shipping, but 15 years into our annual exercise of assessing where the power lies in the maritime sector we find the industry in a state of flux. In important ways it always has been. For all its cyclical uncertainty, political susceptibility and angina aggravating risk, the shipping industry remains the fundamental engine of world trade. Our globalised economy relies on it, countries are built on it and markets rise or fall in step with the patterns of trade left in its wake. But the geopolitical headwinds are really being felt this year. Whether it is the outsized influence of a non-state actor like the Houthis exposing the vulnerability of maritime supply chains, or the pre-emptive trade lane shifts bracing for Trump 2.0, 2024 has reminded us that shipping does not get to decide the conditions in which it operates. This, however, is more than a spot of turbulence; there are bigger forces at play. When we started this annual list, the power of the individual was already under attack. At that point, it was a battle between several shipping models, a spectrum of management styles that spanned from complete state control at one end, through mild cronyism, to the billion-dollar owner in Hong Kong or Piraeus who sat behind a battered desk in a room more suited to an impoverished private detective than a tycoon. Fifteen years ago it still seemed that it would be the pure enterprising figure of the lone capitalist taking risk that would continue to define the industry. In 2025, that figure is starting to look like a relic of the past. This is no longer just about business models. The future of shipping does not rest on shipping-specific issues. Shipping is in flux because the pricing of carbon into global trade forces us to reassess almost every aspect of the value chain shipping sits within. The changes ahead require collective action across regulation, policy, energy, finance, innovation and shipping is only a part of that systems change. Next year will be pivotal in deciding how far and how fast that system changes, and consequently this year has found many of our movers and shakers in limbo, undecided on everything from future fuels to business models. While this year’s list is still replete with the bold moves, power plays and investments you would expect from a list of the most important industry players, for now at least, the power of the individual is waning. Shipping, and the balance of power and influence within it, is about to fundamentally change. Fifteen years from now, the Lloyd’s List Top 100 is likely to look very different.

  • At the Energy Intelligence Forum, Ben Luckock, our Global Head of Oil, discussed the growing challenge of attracting and retaining top talent in an increasingly competitive job market. He outlined the various pathways Trafigura offers to help young professionals build successful careers within the company. Ben highlighted that over the past 10 to 15 years, many younger employees have progressed to senior roles at Trafigura. This success, he emphasised, is a testament to the company's commitment to mentorship and providing the experience necessary for individuals to thrive and excel in the industry. “The company offers multiple entry points, including apprenticeships for school leavers who didn't attend university, a graduate scheme, a programme for individuals with 3-5 years of commercial experience, and opportunities for experienced hires. We also attract seasoned professionals by offering competitive packages to fill specialised roles as needed.”   Ben said these pathways had proven successful in bringing diverse talent into the company, resulting in a dynamic and youthful leadership team.   Find out more about the range of careers on offer at Trafigura here: https://lnkd.in/eFjjMEhA #ConnectingVitalResource #Trafigura #TrafiguraCareers Pictured L-R (image 3): Marcel Van Poecke from AtlasInvest (Chair); Russell Hardy from Vitol; Ben Luckock from Trafigura; Roland Rechtsteiner from McKinsey & Company; Torbjorn Tornqvist from Gunvor Group

    This week, Trafigura’s Geneva office hosted two Bring Your Kids to Work days, igniting curiosity and inspiring the next generation of professionals. On Wednesday, we welcomed over 60 children under the age of ten, engaging them with activities that showcased how Trafigura connects vital resources to help power and build the world. The day concluded with the children joining their parents’ desks for a first-hand look at their work. On Thursday, as part of Switzerland’s "Futur en tous genres" programme, we invited young people aged 12 to 15 for an in-depth exploration of Trafigura’s diverse career opportunities. Fourteen students participated in an insightful programme featuring presentations from HR, Corporate Affairs, Trading, Deals Desk, Energy Transition Research, and the Trafigura Foundation. A Virtual Reality session added an exciting interactive element, and the students also spent time shadowing their parents to better understand their roles. Thank you to everyone who contributed to the success of these events. #BringYourChildToWork #FuturEnTousGenres #FutureTalent #ConnectingVitalResources
