Across Europe, battery energy storage projects are multiplying. Behind these announcements lies less a technological breakthrough than a revealing symptom of Europe’s energy system. BESS are not emerging because energy is scarce, but because it is increasingly desynchronised. Understanding their rise means understanding the structural tensions shaping the next phase of the European energy transition.

In 2025, French industry did not collapse. It stalled. Factories kept operating, employment eroded slowly, but the most critical signal came from elsewhere: long-term industrial investment stopped being decided. This article offers a fact-based analysis of France’s industrial situation in 2025, explores the logic of “deindustrialisation by non-decision”, and explains why 2026 will be a…

Ÿnsect’s collapse shows what happens when technological ambition grows faster than market, economic, and physical constraints. A lesson for tech and industry leaders.

Europe’s industrial landscape is splitting along a new fault line: the ability of factories to survive in a power system that has become structurally volatile. Flexibility is no longer an energy optimisation but a strategic asset — the dividing line between resilient producers and those priced out by instability. In a world where electrification exposes…

A strategic analysis of why Europe leads industrial transformation through stability while France focuses on robotics instead of fixing structural weaknesses.

Europe does not lack ambition or capital to deliver its energy transition. What it lacks is synchronisation between politics, industry, infrastructure and skills. This article offers a systemic reading of a continent whose temporalities refuse to align.

A sharp and grounded perspective on Europe’s industrial decarbonization challenge. This article argues that companies are not experiencing a smooth “energy transition” but a global energy competition where stability, visibility, and affordable power determine industrial survival. Drawing on real factory conditions, it exposes the gap between political narratives and operational reality—and why clarity and courage…

European industry keeps refining transformation methods while ignoring the real cause of failure: the organizational substrate. Culture, incentives, and risk tolerance—not methodology—determine whether transformations succeed or fail before they even begin.

A sharp, human-centered reflection on real management: the invisible emotional labor, the courage to speak the truth, the balance between empathy and accountability, and the responsibility to protect the collective. True leadership happens behind closed doors — where managers stabilize, clarify, and elevate their teams every day.

In a world obsessed with AI, managers remain the bridge between algorithms and humans. This article explores why their role is becoming more strategic, not less, and how they can turn data and models into real decisions, trust and meaning at work.
