What an interesting partnership-- really seems to be bringing value to both sides in unique ways:

Shell will supply Microsoft with renewable energy, helping Microsoft to meet its commitment to having a 100% supply of renewable energy by 2025;

The two companies will continue working together on artificial intelligence (AI), which has already driven transformation across Shell’s operations through access to real-time data insights, contributing to worker and onsite safety, and delivering efficiencies that have helped reduce Shell’s carbon emissions;

Shell and Microsoft will work together on new digital tools so Shell can offer its suppliers and customers effective support in reducing their carbon footprints;

Shell and Microsoft will explore working together to help advance the use of sustainable aviation fuels; and

The companies will use Microsoft’s Azure cloud computing system and data from Shell assets to strengthen operational safety, by improving risk analysis, prediction and prevention.

I'm curious to learn more about the Shell renewable energy generation, but if Microsoft can give them an immediate market for it then this is a win-win.
