© 2024 EPFL
In a recent op-ed published in Le Temps, Prof. Michaël Aklin discusses Switzerland's challenge of ensuring a sustainable and affordable electricity supply amidst rising demand and declining conventional energy sources.
Prof. Aklin emphasises the need to meet increasing electricity demand, achieve decarbonisation goals by 2050, and build new energy infrastructure as nuclear plants are phased out. He highlights the importance of strategic flexibility, innovation, and cross-border cooperation to address these issues and adapt to the evolving energy market.
