we can read every day in the
press but as being really what
was hiding behind
so yes and I will take the risk
to annoy me from the start with wendy
the end of nuclear energy but
as the energy transition is
also energy support
renewable
I think we will be reconciled
quickly but the transition
energy it’s not just that
I will try to explain it to you
are many thieves today
know what’s behind
the label of the products we
eat where does the food come from
who is served to us where and by whom are
made the clothes we wear
but who cares to know what is
behind the switch
person or almost anyone gold
should worry about a real
revolution is going on behind the
electrical outlets revolution of which
the origin and it has already been mentioned
and the fight we are waging against
global warming for
fight greenhouse gases it
must actually changed the way
which we consume the resources of
our planet
so we will changed but not
only 2 on nrj we will change
mode of distribution network
marketing and behavioral
consumption until the beginning of this
millennium
the man sought to satisfy his
energy needs by drawing on the
subsoil resources of the earth
this is how coal oil gas
are extracted daily
of our planet and brings us a
certain comfort
still today they represent 85
% of the world’s total primary energy
to this usually corresponds to a
centralized organization organized in
quasi-monopoly with big
companies that through their network
or distribute their energy and that
works relatively well
we all have electricity at the
house we all have gas
the essence your comfort is getting better
day by day all the more grumbling us
when the price of gasoline grazed by
francs the petrol station
so why do you want to change this
established order
well because fossil fuels
we want more they are limited and
polluting and the whole world are turning
currently towards the energies
renewable
nicolas said at the beginning of set and dick
what the dinosaurs had gone
so that’s not quite true name of
energy there are still some
sertic who think it’s a
epiphenomenon
for my part I am convinced of
contrary non energies
renewable
it’s the future and to convince oneself of it
just look what’s going on
in the countries around us for
Portugal 25 % of electricity
produced by wind turbines in Austria
9% comes from
biomass and it’s the photovoltaics that
in italy produces 8% of the energy
consumed in the country
it must be said that the renewable
unlike fossil fuels has
unparalleled potential
you know maybe but in an hour
the sun from the books to the earth the
amount of energy that humanity
use for one year
this figure is pretty mind-blowing and my
Engineers mind makes me think that
we will not wait long before
to be able not only to capture
but mostly to store effectively
this energy and that’s where the stakes lie
renewable energy it goes
have to change our behavior
can no longer be simple
passive consumers who is waiting
patiently electricity arrives in
his living room it’s the same also
for the distribution companies of
production where our policies
they will no longer be able to settle for
quietly route the electrons
far behind our catches the new
emerging system is open
decentralized and provides a role for
each of us
and in particular to businesses the
building sector
until now the craftsmen continues
to deliver benefits I would say
traditional electrical wiring laying
heating roofing cover
certainly the materials the tools the
techniques evolved over the course of
time
but the business has remained almost
identical and today with a
increased growth on one side and the other
share a legislative pressure always
more restrictive and tomorrow is coming
less pink
so yes the changing landscape
energy offer a real
second chance for companies in the
construction sector with the
paradise change that is announced
will be able to successfully offer
innovative products and services
I think for example about home automation or
smart rom for its more chic who
will optimize the operation
of our appliances
I think about the thermal panels that
coupled with large accumulators
hot water will aim to make us
independent in wages or
still no photovoltaic of
colors that will fit
harmoniously in our architecture
taken some companies already have
take a step in that direction
unfortunately, it is not
not the majority of them when
I go through the business directory
active in the photovoltaic branch
in Switzerland and that I find that only
ten companies are listed in
the valais romand
I ask myself serious questions
would not he have enough sun to be worth
we come we do not have to look up
to see him on the ground
I hear a lot of people who
rather seeks pretexts for
wait rather than motivations
to move forward there are people
who advances the cost of training
kim advance the fear of being
supplied by energies
intermittent risk of losing
jobs
there are people who are against by
principle
then the worst is what tell me we
will not change
we always did like that
and some relaxing yeah that’s easy
for you to talk about energy projects
renewable is your job
we do not understand anything so this
give a little digression
philosophical a few years ago
still me neither do you understand
nothing to renewable energies
despite some training
general practitioner of the polytechnic school
federal de lausanne
but my daily unit of measure
was rather the microphone hurried than the
megawatt since I had a
specialization in microelectronics and
then I was active for ten years
the technical direction of a company
active in card systems at
chip so nothing to do with energy
then in 2009 to the near of the
quarantine I decided to
perfect in management to resume
studies and I enrolled a
executive mba and five weeks in me
going on I passed in front of
two and we both wind turbines
newly built at the elbow of the
rhone and I looked at his machines with
fascination
she represented for me the symbol
creativity of the know-how of
the man able to tame often
against which augreilh the locals
a few months later without his having
no hint of wanting to change
job
I came across an ad for a
post of head of a department
renewable and I asked myself
a few questions from one side I had
envied to go there because I
I would like to be able to participate in
building maybe new
wind turbines that must be very
interesting and then on the other hand
I was still a little afraid of
not be able to assume all my
commitments
I must say that I was in training
continues that I was and I am
always their dad of three children who
were then between 9 and 12 years old and that
I was pretty involved in the
local associative life
music so responsible for a
development company as a member
of school boards but ultimately
I decided to take the plunge I
postulated and jean claude job I must you
say the first few months it did not
been easy
unlike the beautiful x I was not
dropped into the pot
Potions of renewable energies
and I had to learn everything I do not
knew nothing about photovoltaics at
turbines break wind turbines but I
got hooked and I gave myself 18
months to become an interlocutor
credible in this regard
to my great satisfaction it took a
a little bit less time than expected and
the fact that I’m here tonight
lets think or hope that I am
always a credible interlocutor
the material so yes I lived this
personal transition that brought me
to a different world that I do not
did not know and this transition
like any change exist from
leave his comfort zone and leave his
comfort zone
it is not simple it requires
some sacrifices
I remember some days
sunny winter where I spent my
time in my office to study
rather than hitting the slopes
snowy that came in front of my
window and I can tell you that there
had some oaths that sounded
in my family level office too
it was not that I had little
availability little time to devote
to my children and my wife but on
this plan I must admit that
i was spoiled the woman sarah may
have always supported in activities
and but still have brilliantly
replaced in my family chores
so yes leave his comfort zone
is not simple and like my
course I think that today the
businesses must recover
question they have to leave this
situation certainly mastered us
limited potential and projecting itself into a
future with plenty of opportunities but
progress that means against
face our monsters the fear of
failure
fear of investing apprehension
to not control things where the
temptation of transitional sloth
energy needs ideas of
innovation and know-how
technology but above all daring and
bravery
and all the more so here in Valais where
the hydroelectric industry is so
strongly present is anchored in
our culture
we could ask ourselves the question and there
a lot of them that poses but
why do so much effort to
produce some unfortunate kilowatts
overtime while the
spinning blue gold into more product
10 billion a year and to hold
such reasoning is not only
fake but he also loose and risk
is wrong because opposite the great
hydraulics to new energies
renewables it is wrong to target
if we want to replace energies
fossil
we can not be satisfied with
current situation and production
of great hydraulics
it is necessary to add any kilowatt hour
additional greens
If we do anything we will leave
energy future of the planet to
some leaders
and if things do not happen like
we want to adopt the policy of
the ostrich risk and finally because this
market is changing very fast and the train
will not repeat a second time
wait and do nothing is a
mistake we can all act to go
in that direction
the energy transition is a
unheard of luck because today we
are released from certain
constraints and we have the
opportunity to act and choose
do I run on gasoline or
do I spend on a car
electric is what I want to produce
a part of electricity that I
consorts and even constitute a
self-consumption community in my
building in the neighborhood
am I going to use the wood of
the forest to heat my house it is
normal than facing his choices
let’s not be a little disconcerted
because we are moving from a situation
the consumer in general associated with
polluter pays to a pro situation
summers impro sommers and someone
we take part in the production of
product they consume this neologism
is indeed trained duo pro production
and his morning drummer consumers
sorry
so a pro summers is someone who
looking for a product a service
who’s making his measurement that
correspond to his own
individuality and as I say these
choices are difficult because the world
of energy is a world still very
technique that needs to be
popularized a friend responsible for a
communication agency aims and
lately the world of energy
it’s a no man’s land marketing and he’s
entirely reason
everything remains to be done so that we
appropriate all the subtleties of this
world and when it will be done your
relation to the energy goes
dramatically change
I’m ready to take the bets that
in a very short time
we will not pay their bills anymore
kilowatt hours or two cubic meters
of hot water consume but that there will be
nj all-inclusive packages to the image
of what is being done in the field of
telephone internet phone when our
children will build they will not
will be more than happy to ask for a simple
connection to the electricity network
gas
they will track down wastes
every kilowatt hour of the panels
solar will be systematically
integrated into the buildings of
modern heat pumps will replace
advantageously old water heaters or
saulieres exceeded but for
to reach you must dare one must take
risks need to be undertaken and this to
all levels of society
whether it is the political bodies of
economic and professional actors
from the branch you 1
everyone has to get started and if there is
a few minutes
I painted a portrait a little
pessimistic of the situation in our
canton
I can not conclude without mentioning
some elements that give
trust when I see what is
done at the level of training especially
at the level of the Valais high school
when I think
go pfl and start up that will miss
not to be created when I come across
entrepreneurs who transform their
company in this new reality
or when I hear speeches
policies resolutely turned in
this energy transition
I have confidence I trust that the
Valais will know how to take his destiny mom and
do not be left behind in this
walk or rather this race towards a
different world more respectful of
the environment
but again we have to dare
try to learn and learn this is
not easy
no machine can do it to your
place no pill can learn for
we whatever the method
teaching
whatever the charism of the
teachers whatever the
progress we can make
new technologies must be wet
the shirt as we say in the language
sporty it is necessary to launch fireplace
no matter the cost
and this way you bother because at
take some risks not from the
see but to be
whether it’s knowing how to play a
instrument practice a sport to be
a country
master a technology to take
develops the best in
the man the curiosity the opening the
passion the sharing montaigne was saying to
to take is the art of maintaining in
his adulthood
the lit fire in the child is
why do I like this fire
and I hope tonight have contributed in
turn on again
[Applause]
