“Mindset is one of the biggest barriers to change,” said Frédéric Godemel, Executive Vice President of Energy Management at Schneider Electric. “Too often, people assume that the solution to ‘not enough energy’ is simply to add more. The reality is that we also need to consider demand-side efficiency. Misconceptions around cost, complexity, and payback are holding back progress on resilient AI-powered infrastructure and electrification. Through the Energy Technology Coalition, we’re proving that the technologies to build intelligent, resilient, efficient, and sustainable energy systems already exist. Today’s challenge is to rethink how we manage energy demand. At VivaTech, we’re partnering with tech leaders and startups to scale solutions faster, powering sustainable AI growth and more affordable energy.”
