Going net zero & strengthening Europe’s industrial base is the goal. Europe needs a diverse energy plan that speeds up the transition and keeps power stable & affordable. Renewables need firm, flexible capacity – & until grids are integrated, remain tech‑open incl. SMRs.

Europe has top unis, research institutions, innovative firms, & deep capital markets. But it lacks alignment. To stay competitive, Europe must scale cleantech quickly and set clear rules for breakthrough tech like AI & fusion. Unity across member states is key.

The future prosperity of Europe depends on meeting rising energy demand while lowering costs, protecting critical infrastructure, and securing access to critical raw materials & strategic technologies. Energy security and competitiveness now go hand in hand.

“#Europe has to move back to manufacturing beyond wine and cheese. Renewables have become a religion. The EU should start with #Germany, it must become self-sufficient and stop outsourcing,” says @NarendraTaneja at the @bmwfoundation.

We need to stop declaring #multilateralism or international #cooperation “dead.”
If we want future corridors: #economic, #energy, or #development, we must push the models that work.
Productive discussion as part of @MunSecConf @bmwfoundation #MSC2026.

Instead of generalizing, we need to be granular. We should focus on what has worked, where gov., IFIs, private sector & multi-stakeholder platforms have delivered. These examples exist, and they matter.
The task is not to abandon cooperation.
