The operating life of these nuclear generators is assumed so far to be 60 years, so by 2050 most will have been decommissioned. This comprehensive strategy for achieving carbon neutrality relies largely on energy efficiency, systematic use of biomass and greater use of electricity.įrance already enjoys extremely low-carbon electricity, owing largely to its nuclear generation fleet built in the 1980s and the 1990s. To help it reach this goal, the French government recently published a new energy and climate law and the National Low-Carbon Strategy ( Stratégie nationale bas-carbone, or SNBC). Just one point separates them from their bitter Milan rivals who are suddenly struggling for form.France is one of several countries which have pledged to achieve net zero carbon emissions by 2050 to meet its climate change mitigation commitments under the Paris Agreement.
