Relying on both nuclear energy and renewable energies
This is the number of scenarios studied by the French electricity transmission system operator (Réseau de transport d’électricité, RTE) for France to achieve carbon neutrality in 2050: three scenarios involving a nuclear/ renewable energy mix and three 100% renewable scenarios.
