The rapid shift to nuclear power in France is often hailed as a benchmark for efficient and effective climate action. Beginning in the 1970s, France embarked on an ambitious nuclear energy program that has since positioned it as a global leader in nuclear power generation. Today, approximately 70% of France’s electricity is derived from nuclear energy. This transition was motivated by the oil crises of the 1970s, which highlighted the need for energy security and independence.
