Powerful insights from top minds in energy
Our opening keynote brought powerful insights from some of the top minds in energy:
♦ Gwenaelle Avice Huet of Schneider Electric reminded us that "Competitiveness is good for the energy transition", urging the industry to prioritise skills, innovation, and action.
♦ Gianni Vittorio Armani of Enel Group emphasised that "this is more than a transition, it is a transformation", pointing to the increasing demand for reliable electricity and infrastructure expansion.
♦ Greg Jackson of Octopus Energy had a bold statement, explaining that, with the sharp drop in renewable energy prices, "it would be mad to build gas".
♦ Duarte Bello of EDP focused on electrification, stating that "our biggest innovation challenge is electrification", calling for a push to win support from stakeholders and governments.
"Delighted to be in Milan for Enlit Europe to catch up with colleagues and be at the centre of The Energy Transition."
