Electrifying the Future: Can Power Drive Circularity?

Circularity isn’t just about materials. It’s about energy. In this episode of Plastic. Climate. Future., we speak with Constantine Lau from Schneider Electric, who is leading electrification strategies for some of the world’s most energy-intensive industries. With decades of experience across oil, gas, and chemicals, Constantine shares why the shift from managing molecules to managing electrons may be one of the most underestimated levers for circular transformation. We explore: Why electrification is central to scaling circular systems How digitalization and energy management reshape industrial operations The connection between decarbonization and circularity Why ROI and regulatory clarity must align for real impact A strategic, forward-looking conversation about how energy systems and circular systems are more connected than we often think. 🎧 Listen now on Spotify or Apple Podcasts!
