LONDON, Jan 9 (Reuters) - Royal Dutch Shell's head
of New Energies Mark Gainsborough announced on Thursday he was
stepping down after setting up and leading a rapid expansion of
the company's renewables and low-carbon business over the past
four years.
Gainsborough will be replaced by Elisabeth Brinton on April
1, the 39-year Shell veteran said in a post on LinkedIn. He will
leave the company at the end of the year.
Brinton, a Silicon Valley and utility industry veteran,
joined Shell in 2018 and is currently vice president for
strategy at the New Energies, according to her LinkedIn page.
A Shell spokeswoman confirmed the moves.
