The system “is based on a network of interconnected infrastructures” and “allows European countries to take advantage of the complementarity of the production systems of different countries: solar energy in the south, wind energy in the north, hydraulic, gas and nuclear for the countries who made the choice…”, she explains.
Supply issues
The president of the National Rally Jordan Bardella indicated this week in “Le Parisien” that he wanted to “immediately” begin negotiations with Brussels to waive European electricity pricing rules, which according to him would “reduce bills by 30%”. .
“Putting back energy barriers within Europe would increase the risks of supply problems and price increases,” said the general director of Engie, emphasizing that the European market “has ensured France’s electricity supply when it no longer had sufficient production” in 2022 and 2023.
More profitable renewables
Catherine MacGregor also defends renewable energies. “They already represent more than 150,000 jobs in France. Their development has made it possible for twenty years to avoid the import of 910 million barrels of oil and to reduce the French energy bill by 40 billion euros,” she writes.
Thanks to the progress made over the last ten years, “they are less expensive, more profitable and their coupling with battery networks will compensate for their intermittency,” says the manager.
