France’s Energy Puzzle: Selling Clean Power while Buying Dirty Oil
In 2025, France shattered historical energy records by exporting a net volume of 92.3 TWh of low-carbon electricity, generating €5.4 billion in revenue and saving 27 million tonnes of CO2 across Europe. Yet, this “green success” highlights a massive structural delay: the nation remains tethered to a €53 billion fossil fuel import bill. As electricity consumption stagnates and industry electrification lags, France finds itself in the paradoxical position of being Europe’s primary clean energy provider while still spending ten times its export earnings to fuel its own fossil addiction.
