France Energy Policy Framework
- France does not possess substantial fossil fuel reserves. The country was quick to adopt nuclear power as its primary electricity source to avoid dependency on importing coal and gas.
- France has set a target to shut down all coal-fired power plants by 2024 and several oil-fired power plants by 2030. However thermal power will exist in the capacity mix majorly in the form of gas-fired power plants by 2035.
- The French Energy Ministry may restart a coal-fired power plant as a preventive measure of the energy crisis, fueled by the Ukraine-Russian war.
