Shell said it had launched a strategic review of the three businesses which is likely to take a few months, but that no decision had been taken yet on their future
Shell injected nearly $1.5-billion in cash and credit into its British energy retail business in 2022 to help it weather huge volatility in power prices that caused the collapse of several rival UK utilities.
Shell Energy Retail, its UK business, has 1.4 million customers, while its German business has 110,000 and the Dutch business 15,000. Shell said its wholesale and business-to-business energy supply businesses were not part of the strategic review, and neither were its home energy supply businesses in the United States and Australia.
Although the retail businesses have struggled, Shell is set to post a record annual profit of over $30-billion in 2022 when it reports results on Feb. 7 thanks to soaring oil and gas prices.Your Globe
