In this interview, Antoine Magnier, President, CEO and Co-Owner at SERGI, highlights that while energy transition debates focus on generation and electrification, the physical resilience of grid-critical assets remains overlooked. He explains how ageing transformer fleets, increasing system stress from renewables and AI-driven demand, and long replacement lead times are turning local technical risks into broader system risks. The discussion emphasises the growing importance of physical protection as the last line of defence against catastrophic failures, alongside evolving regulatory expectations and the need for a more comprehensive approach to resilience in modern power systems.
