Energy transition - The real choices
Description
In this book, the authors propose an overview of assets and weaknesses of the French energy model, i.e. expertise and a unique energy patrimony on the one side, and a too strong dependence on hydrocarbons, an insufficient share of renewable energies, and prices which do not reflect the market reality on the other side. While addressing currently debated issues, the authors aim at proposing some clues and answers to different questions related to the interdiction of shale gas, to the role of nuclear energies in front of climate change, to the cost of development of renewable energies. They also discuss how to make the French energy system more efficient and to struggle against growing energy poverty
