Offsetting with the Shell Card and enabling your fleet to drive carbon neutral can play a key role in your low carbon planning, allowing you to offset unavoidable carbon emissions in a simple and cost-effective way.
We understand the many challenges today’s fleets face on the road to a lower carbon future. Whether you’re just starting to consider alternative fuels or already have electric vehicles, your fleet will produce emissions that are just unavoidable. And that’s where our new carbon offsetting service can help.
It's easy; sign-up and your fleet can drive carbon neutral, simply by using the Shell Card. Shell takes care of the rest, offsetting your fleet's unavoidable carbon emissions through the purchase of carbon credits from a portfolio of carefully chosen nature-based projects – such as forest developments or grassland preservation projects – that capture and store carbon from the atmosphere.
You don’t even have to change the way you work – Shell automatically calculates your well-to-wheel carbon emissions and offsets these through Shell’s global portfolio of nature-based solutions projects.

It is important to note that as of May 5, 2020, Shell’s operating plans and budgets do not reflect Shell’s net-zero Emissions ambition. Shell’s aim is that, in the future, its operating plans and budgets will change to reflect this movement towards its new net-zero emissions ambition. However, these plans and budgets need to be in step with the movement towards a Net Zero Emissions economy within society and among Shell’s customers.
There are several advantages to offsetting the CO2 emissions of your fleet with Shell:
Disclaimer
"Carbon neutral” indicates that Shell has engaged in a transaction where an amount of CO2 equivalent to the CO2e amount associated with the raw material extraction, transport, production, distribution and usage [or end-of-life, if Lubricants or other non-energy product] of the [product] has been avoided as emissions through the protection of natural ecosystems or removed from the atmosphere through a nature-based process. CO2e (CO2 equivalent) means CO2, CH4, N2O.
