The promise of individual and collective emancipation implicit in the notion of progress appears to be broken.
Renewable energy is an essential part of our strategy of decarbonization, decentralization, as well as digitalization of energy.
I have received so many letters, messages, emails, testimonies of women whom I meet in international conferences, wherever it may be, who tell me, 'It's great that you have balanced life and work so successfully.' I now think I have underestimated that, the 'role model' aspect of my life, I must say.

I realize that every time we discuss a job placement and look at a list of both male and female candidates, there's a question that comes up pretty much all the time for the woman: 'Will she know how to assert herself?' It's not meant to be malicious. It's more, 'Will she manage to take leadership of the team you want to entrust to her?'
We will progressively make our gas greener so that by 2050 it can be 100 percent green.
