France breaks electricity export record in 2025

lemonde.fr (French) [$]

France set a new record for electricity exports in 2025, exporting 92 terawatt-hours. This surpasses the previous year's record and highlights strong low-carbon energy production. The national grid operator, RTE, reported that these exports generated 5.4 billion euros for France. This significant revenue contrasts sharply with the country's substantial spending on fossil fuels. This record export performance follows a trend of increasing electricity sales abroad, with 2024 also setting a new benchmark. The financial gains from electricity exports are a positive development for the national economy.
