🌍 The energy transition will not happen on its own. It will be driven by the sharing of experience, international cooperation, and the development of skills and capabilities.
 
Rising electricity demand, the electrification of end uses, network digitalization, evolving customer expectations, and workforce development are reshaping the utility sector worldwide. Across the globe, utilities are facing a profound transformation of their business models.
 
In this context, we were honored that our CEO, Sebastien Ruiz, was invited to speak and exchange views at the Impact Program on Powering Sustainable Energy Utilities, organized by the The World Bank Group in Rabat last week. The program brought together leaders and experts from the power sector to share their experience and perspectives on supporting the transformation of electricity distribution companies.

🖊️ The discussions highlighted several key challenges through practical examples and lessons learned from the EDF Group’s experience in electricity distribution, both in France and internationally. Topics included network planning, grid modernization, innovation, digitalization, the evolution of customer relationships, and the development of the skills required to successfully deliver the energy transition.

Because energy challenges are global, the exchange of knowledge and experience between utilities, institutions, and experts is more essential than ever to build electricity networks that are more efficient, resilient, and sustainable.
 
👏 A sincere thank you to the World Bank Group: Infrastructure for its trust and for creating this valuable opportunity for dialogue and collaboration.

🇨🇷 Le Costa Rica construit depuis plusieurs décennies un leadership reconnu dans la production d’électricité renouvelable. Le prochain défi consiste à continuer d’adapter son système électrique pour répondre à une demande croissante et aux effets du changement climatique.

C’est pourquoi notre Groupe et la European Investment Bank (EIB) accompagnent le plan d’investissement du groupe ICE (grupoicecr) pour renforcer la résilience, la modernisation et la durabilité du système électrique costaricain.

Mais la coopération va au-delà du financement : grâce à une coopération technique avec EDF International Networks, l’expertise française en matière de distribution électrique sera mise en relation avec les capacités et les priorités définies par l’ICE afin d’avancer dans la modernisation et la numérisation de ses réseaux.

💬 « La France souhaite continuer à construire sur notre vision commune des enjeux énergétiques […], en rapprochant les connaissances, les entreprises et les capacités techniques afin que nos institutions puissent apprendre et progresser ensemble vers la neutralité carbone », a souligné Nicolas Forissier, Ministre délégué chargé du commerce extérieur et de l’attractivité de France.

⚡ Une coopération qui associe financement, connaissances et expertise pour avancer ensemble dans la transition énergétique.
