Accelerating the development of solar energy
Launched in 2017, the EDF Solar Plan is a proactive Group programme promoting the development of photovoltaic energy in France. Its purpose is to make EDF the leader in photovoltaic energy in France with a market share of 30% by 2035 and one of the world's solar leaders.
Photovoltaic energy : a green energy transition process
Photovoltaic solar technology can produce clean electricity without emitting any greenhouse gases. It contributes to the development of renewable energy solutions in the French energy mix.
