The findings, published by the We Mean Business Coalition, underscore a widening gap between corporate ambition and state infrastructure. While 90% of leaders expect their operations to be fully electrified by 2035, 72% report that current government policies remain dangerously sluggish. This disconnect carries tangible economic risks; 62% of respondents indicated they would consider relocating operations to countries that offer more robust support for renewable grid integration.

Executives are moving beyond environmental concerns, framing the shift as a matter of industrial competitiveness. Nearly 90% of those surveyed believe that transitioning to a renewables-based system will drive economic growth, while 88% argue that electrification is essential to maintaining a competitive edge. As G7 leaders convene in Evian to discuss economic resilience, the data serves as a stark warning: nations failing to modernize their power grids risk losing global investment to faster-moving, electrified economies.
