And so, you know, I actually salute governments for the strength they've shown in kind of pushing this through.
But we're now on that second half of the road.
And the faster we get across the rest of the road,
the safer we're going to be.
Because at the moment, you kind of try to ride two horses at once.
And that's really never very effective.
20 years ago, 5% of global clean energy patents were Chinese.
Today is 75%.
Slowing down the mutual electric vehicles to protect incumbent industries through tariffs or through regulation is literally guaranteeing you're missing the train for the most important technology transformation of our time other than AI.
So it is mad to condemn our companies, our industries, and I say that for many Western countries, to condemn them to essentially irrelevance.
Instead, we should be spurring that change so they can be part of the emerging world.
You know, when you said that we're going to see more of the issues like Spain or whatever, look,
I think the failure to understand customers in energy really holds back policy.
And you said we've done these kind of big living lab experiments at global scale.
We need more of that.
It's fascinating, you know, one of the energy companies in the UK also provides broadband.
And they said if a customer is filed up and has to choose which one they pay, they pay broadband because the internet is considered by customers more important than electricity for a short period of time.
A customer said to me, look, if I haven't got power, I just open my laptop and watch a movie on Netflix, right?
Because I've got a battery in there.
And so, no, I'm not advocating not having power.
