This report was previously published by BP.
Figures refer to gross generation and do not account for cross-border electricity supply. According to the source, the data was converted on the basis of thermal equivalence: the amount of fuel required by thermal power stations to produce the indicated electricity output.
This statistic was compiled using several releases of the publication.
Figures were restated based on the latest edition of the report.
Hydroelectricity consumption in France amounted to roughly ****petajoules in 2024, up from some ****petajoules in the prior year. Overall, since the year 2000, consumption of hydroelectricity in the European country has increased by approximately ***petajoules.
