BP forms offshore wind joint venture in renewables retreat
LONDON (Reuters) -BP and Japanese power generator JERA have agreed to join forces to form one of the world's largest offshore wind operators, a major step in CEO Murray Auchincloss' efforts to reduce BP's focus on renewables. BP's retreat from offshore wind reflects a similar trend at rivals Shell and Equinor, which are trying to boost near-term profits by spending more on higher-return oil and gas operations. The 50-50 venture, called JERA Nex bp, will pool together almost all of their operating assets and development projects with a potential generation capacity of 13 gigawatts (GW), the two companies said in a statement.
