The State of Green in France
Transitioning away from fossil fuels is a growing priority for many European countries, including France. Contrary to many nations, France has been showing progress in developing a low-carbon electricity mix, positioning itself as a leader in climate action through its green investments and initiatives. It was among the first countries to target net zero emissions and carbon neutrality.
France is in a good position to help the environment, sourcing 88% of its power from zero-emission sources like nuclear and hydropower. However, decarbonization requires a multi-faceted approach, including minimizing carbon-intensive sources and increasing renewables.
This report will explore France’s clean energy landscape, including its solar PV sector. It will assess solar’s role in decarbonization, track deployment progress, highlight policy developments, profile its most significant installations, and look to the future of how France will fulfill its solar potential.
