Worldwide
As 91 %(1) of its electricity production does not emit any CO₂, the EDF Group can rightly claim that it is the champion of low-carbon growth.
In 2021, EDF Group’s specific carbon emissions delivered the figure of 48 g/kWh produced (vs 51 g/kWh in 2020). The Group’s carbon intensity is now 5 times lower than the European utilities average.(2)

In France
In France, the electricity produced by EDF is more than 97%(1) CO₂ free, thanks to nuclear power and renewable energies.
In 2021, EDF’s specific carbon emissions in France delivered the figure of 16 g/kWh(2) produced (vs 13 g/kWh in 2020), 14 times less than the European average for the sector(3).

Nuclear energy
Clean, safe and competitive, nuclear power represents 86.8% of electricity produced by EDF in France. It underpins the French energy mix and ensures the country’s energy independence.
Renewable energies
While relying on its nuclear base, EDF is counting on the growth of renewable energy sources (hydroelectric, solar, wind, etc.), whose capacity will increase by more than 70% between 2021 and 2030 to reach 60 GW net.
Genuine commitments to preserve the planet

Reducing CO₂ emissions further
An ambitious trajectory of decrease in the carbon emissions guaranteeing to reach 25 MtCO₂ respect to the direct emissions of the Group by 2030.
