Models show that roughly 90% of industrial energy demand could be electrified. This edition takes a look at the latest research about equipment realities, strategic scenarios and policy conditions.

Changeist's Scott Smith and Susan Cox-Smith convened twenty futurists to build the 10F Consortium, ten open, modular forecasts on the forces reshaping the coming decade. Their central finding is that the single rulebook the world once shared has split into several that no longer reconcile, turning forces once treated as background, migration, energy, technology sovereignty, into design constraints for anyone who builds. The work argues that foresight remains human work, since a machine can read the past with perfect clarity but there are no facts about the future.
