France’s energy sector is an essential pillar that supports our daily activities and the national economy.

With over 67,000 companies and more than 213,744 full-time equivalents (FTEs), it lies at the core of our infrastructure. However, it faces significant challenges such as energy transition, greenhouse gas emission reduction, decarbonization and technological innovation.

These challenges are accentuated by exponential global population growth, economic expansion in many countries, and rising energy demand. Despite these challenges, the sector offers significant opportunities to build a cleaner, more sustainable energy future through investments in renewable energy, energy efficiency and innovative technologies.

Issues & Challenges

The challenges facing the sector require to:

  • Design and invest in green energy projects.
  • Modernise existing facilities and build new nuclear reactors to ensure the country’s energy security.
  • Optimise energy efficiency by implementing targeted energy policies in buildings, industry and transport, thereby limiting emissions.
  • Improve energy production and distribution processes.
  • Anticipate fluctuations in government regulations that could disrupt energy production.
