Energy Transition: It's Now or Never

Let us react to the slowness of the French transition, the Swiss regulatory procrastination, the decrease of the German dynamic, the risks weighing on the British transition, the difficulties met by the cities to appropriate their own transition.

This era is no longer focused on concepts and the mixing of ideas but rather on achievements, profound change and questioning. The changes are already large but those to come will be even more important. It is with more determination and creativity that each company must face these new deadlines and ensure its sustainability.
