Research Interest:

This paper examines the strategic transition of Brega Petroleum Marketing Company (BPMC) towards renewable energy integration within Libya’s energy landscape. As global energy markets evolve toward sustainability, oil companies face increasing pressure to diversify their portfolios and reduce environmental impacts. This research proposes a strategic framework for BPMC’s renewable energy transition, drawing on theoretical foundations of corporate social responsibility, sustainable business model innovation, and design thinking. The framework addresses Libya’s unique context, balancing the country’s exceptional solar potential with its ongoing dependence on fossil fuels for economic stability. Through comparative analysis with international case studies and application of the triple bottom line approach, this paper outlines an implementation roadmap that enables BPMC to develop internal capacity, create strategic partnerships, and establish a blended energy model. The findings suggest that a phased transition approach can generate both environmental benefits and economic opportunities while enhancing BPMC’s corporate social responsibility profile and long-term resilience in a carbon-constrained future.
