Low Carbon Solutions — CCS, Hydrogen, and Mobil Lithium

Exxon Mobil's Low Carbon Solutions business is a real and growing part of the company — about $20-30 billion in planned investment between 2025 and 2030, with carbon capture and storage, hydrogen, lithium for EV batteries, and Proxxima resin systems for wind, automotive, and infrastructure. Candidates who can speak credibly about this business signal they understand modern Exxon Mobil. Candidates who only see Exxon as "an oil company" miss the question entirely.
