The Senior Vice-President of Renewables at TotalEnergies, Julien Pouget, said, “A growing number of companies are shifting to renewable energy, and we want to support them on their path towards carbon neutrality. There is a dynamic market for corporate PPAs in Europe, and we want TotalEnergies to take a strong leadership position.”
On July 23, Piper Sandler analyst Ryan Todd reiterated a Buy rating on the stock, while raising the price target to $66 from $60, implying a 53% upside potential to current levels.
Todd believes that the crunch in crude oil supply is boosting the strong free cash flow outlook for integrated oils sector for the second quarter of 2021. This is expected to bode well for TotalEnergies.
