Five defining questions for Davos 2026
The race for the cheapest hour of labour is over. The race for the cheapest, cleanest kilowatt-hour has begun.
- From the billable hour to the billable token. Robots and AI run on electricity, so the cost of automated work now tracks the kilowatt-hour.
- From values to margins. Since January 2026 the EU has priced carbon at its border, so decarbonisation is now margin protection.
- From dependency to abundance. Whoever can guarantee a reliable, low-cost, clean electron wins.
