Industrial decarbonisation: "France is way ahead of other countries" (É. Bondi, Qualisteo)

'France is well ahead of other countries when it comes to reducing emissions from industrial sites and buildings. On some of the sites we work on, it's the Stone Age of energy efficiency. This means there is absolutely nothing in place, the site consumes a huge amount of energy and there isn't even a meter," said Qualisteo's Managing Director, Élodie Bondi, in an interview with News Tank on 10 September 2025.

'In France, we've been discussing these energy and energy efficiency issues since 2010, whereas some countries have not yet addressed this significant issue. While we are rather ahead of the game in this area, I would point out that there is still a great deal to be done.'

Topics covered include energy efficiency, the contribution of artificial intelligence to reducing consumption and France's position in the race to achieve carbon neutrality for industrial sites. Élodie Bondi answers News Tank's questions.

The energy consumption of buildings and industry is a crucial issue if we are to achieve our carbon neutrality objectives. Is it efficient and sufficient to date?
