In this French-language Energy Vista, Leslie Palti-Guzman sits down with David Lévy, former nuclear official and energy executive, for a strategic conversation on nuclear sovereignty, transatlantic cooperation, and Europe’s industrial future.
From France’s original licensing of Westinghouse technology to today’s competition with Russia and China, we explore:
• Should the US and Europe (+Japan and South Korea) form a coherent Western nuclear bloc?
• China building 37 reactors in parallel, what does that mean for influence?
• Why renewables alone cannot provide base load for AI and data centers
This episode connects energy policy to geopolitics, industrial survival, and global power.
