Total will be as active in adding renewable energy assets in 2021 as it was last year, chief executive Patrick Pouyanne told an Oddo BHF conference on Friday.
Total is trying to reduce its dependence on oil and shift towards electricity and renewable energy. It aims to have 35 gigawatts (GW) of gross renewable energy generation capacity by 2025 from around 9 GW now.
Mr Pouyanne said the investment budget for electricity and renewables would surpass $2 billion in 2021.
Asked whether Total would still pursue oil exploration in the future, Mr Pouyanne said the company would focus on cost and said some fields that were difficult to develop in some regions like the Arctic were off limits.
"If we can develop at less than $20 per barrel, we consider that it will be resilient for the long term," Mr Pouyanne told the online conference, adding that Total was focusing on areas such as the Middle East and North Africa, Brazil and Suriname.

Evacuations to France hit by controversy
- Over 500 Gazans have been evacuated to France since November 2023
- Evacuations were paused after a student already in France posted anti-Semitic content and was subsequently expelled to Qatar
- The Foreign Ministry launched a review to determine how authorities failed to detect the posts before her entry
- Artists and researchers fall under a programme called Pause that began in 2017
- It has benefited more than 700 people from 44 countries, including Syria, Turkey, Iran, and Sudan
- Since the start of the Gaza war, it has also included 45 Gazan beneficiaries
- Unlike students, they are allowed to bring their families to France
