An ad for global energy firm Repsol’s involvement in renewable hydrogen has been banned for omitting to make any mention that large-scale oil and gas forms the “vast majority” of its business.
The online ad on the Financial Times website in July featured an image of a water droplet with the caption: “Renewable hydrogen, another alternative to reduce emissions. At Repsol, we are committed to renewable hydrogen as an energy source that offers up different uses such as zero net emissions synthetic fuel production.”
