Interacting with Google's Parent Company, Alphabet Inc.

In a strategic move to expand its position in renewable energy, UK energy giant Shell has announced a partnership with Alphabet Inc.'s subsidiary, Google. This collaboration aims to power all of Google's operations with 100% clean energy by 2030, marking a significant step in the UK's transition to low-carbon energy.

The deal, scheduled to begin in 2023, will see Shell supplying offshore wind energy to Google. The British company will leverage its trading expertise and access to battery storage systems to manage excess energy during periods of high renewable energy production. This stored energy will be fed back into the grid when demand increases, enhancing grid stability.

Shell's partnership with Google broadens its portfolio and reduces its dependence on volatile oil and gas prices. The valuation of Shell's shares remains favourable, with a solid balance sheet, high reserves, and a good cost structure. The dividend yield of Shell's shares remains high at four percent, making them an attractive investment option.

The stop-loss for Shell's shares should remain at 24.00 euros. Shell will ensure power supply reliability for Google's data centers and offices, a responsibility it will share with other global partners like Alphabet (Google) in their joint endeavours.

In addition to its partnership with Google, Shell has also announced a collaboration with leading Chinese automaker Great Wall Motor (GWM) for renewable energy use, specifically in the context of hydrogen mobility through H2 MOBILITY Deutschland. This information indicates that Shell's investment in renewable energy is a strategic move to diversify its portfolio and potentially increase its financial stability.

Shell will help Google balance the natural variability of renewable energy generation, a task it is well-equipped to handle given its extensive experience in the energy sector. This partnership supports the UK's transition to low-carbon energy and underscores Shell's commitment to a sustainable future.

Shell's shares are traded under the WKN: A3C99G. Given the favourable valuation and strategic partnerships, Shell's shares remain a buy for investors seeking a balance between financial returns and environmental responsibility.
