Power generation

Low-carbon power,
high-speed delivery

Keep generating, start scaling low-carbon power efficiently

The energy transition is raising expectations for power generators who must meet surging demand, reduce emissions, and maintain system reliability. But for many, the challenge is scaling low-carbon power generation quickly, without sacrificing performance or cost control. Our portfolio of proven, efficient solutions helps decarbonize power and accelerate the energy transition.

2,200

New power demand from data centers, electrification, and AI is projected to add over 2,200 TWh by 2035.1

$2T

The U.S. alone may need up to $2 trillion in grid modernization by 2030 to maintain reliability.2

50%

Global electricity demand is expected to surge up to 50% by 2040, driven by manufacturing and electrification.3

35%

Coal use is projected to fall 35% by 2050, as lower-emission sources meet rising global demand.4

Accelerating the energy transition for power generation

Through reliable low-carbon fuel supply, deep execution expertise, and strong technology alliances, we help you move fast. Our integrated approach helps power producers reduce risk and drive progress toward decarbonization goals.

  • Experience you can build on

    With more than $100B in strategic large capital projects developed over the past 5 years, ExxonMobil brings the scale, reliability, and expertise power producers can count on. Our experts combine this hands-on experience with deep market and policy insight to help you identify and implement viable, lower-carbon pathways with confidence.

  • Low carbon power, high speed delivery

    As electricity demand accelerates, driven by AI and data center growth, we’re expanding our portfolio of flexible, commercially viable solutions to support reliable power generation. By leveraging our differentiated natural gas supply, integrated CCS and large-scale project execution expertise, we’re helping power producers move projects forward efficiently, reducing emissions while maintaining performance and delivering lower-carbon power at the pace today’s systems require. 

  • We’ve worked in power—now we work for it

    We understand the operational realities of power generation because we’ve done it ourselves. This hands on experience strengthens our ability to deliver reliable, real world solutions to support our customers more effectively. Our proven track record in delivering complex energy infrastructure helps advance the transition to lower-carbon power.
