Citation formats

In the third quarter of 2024, feed-in tariffs (FITs) for residential solar photovoltaic (PV) installations with a power capacity between and **** kilowatts in France were around **** euro cents per kilowatt-hour.
Because of a new FIT order started in 2017, residential solar PV tariffs were below ** euro cents per kilowatt-hour between 2017 and June 2022.

What are feed-in tariffs?

FITs, also called renewable energy payments or standard offer contracts, are a strategy to incentivize solar photovoltaic (PV) energy systems or other renewable energy sources. With FITs, the government can intervene in the energy market by artificially creating investment advantages to support renewable energy generation. Usually, they consist of long-term agreements with renewable energy producers, allowing them to sell their energy at an above-market price.

France's incentives and feed-in tariffs

FITs are not exclusive to small residential installations. Depending on the installed power of photovoltaic panels, other PV FITs will apply. The French government also grants self-consumption bonuses to households using PV installations for their energy production.
The total renewable energy investments in France peaked in 2023, reaching ** billion U.S. dollars.
