Key energy figures about France
Total final energy consumption (2014): 164 Mtoe
Electricity production in 2015 : 546 TWh
Where do we stand in 2014?
Biofuels
Solid biomass Hydropower
Other renewables sources - heating
Wind powerHeat pumps
Other renewables sources - power
Share of renewable energy sources (RES) in the final energy consumption from 2005 to 2014 and path to achieve 2020 objectives
14.3
16
23
2020 RES goals :• 27% electricity• 33% heating and cooling•10.5% transport
Energy transition for green growth Act (2015)
Set clear and ambitious goals :
4
Promote renewable energy, to create a balanced mix
In 2015, 16,3% of the energy consumed was of renewable origin. The aim is to raise this to 23% in 2020 and 32% in
2030.
AMBITIOUS GOALS• Double the share of renewables in the French energy system over the next fifteen years• Promote the improved integration of renewable energy sources into the electrical system via new support mechanisms.
• Revision of support schemes for renewables (electricty sector)
• Acceleration of grid connection for electric renewable energyproduction sites
• Simplification of procedures : single permitting
• Facilitating investments in RES projects for local communities :
- Municipalities are able to acquire shareholdings in limitedcompanies whose corporate purpose is the generation of renewableenergy.

Transport
General tax on Polluting activites
Tax relief for biofuel (ended
in 2015)
Ecological bonus for low
carbon vehicles
Gas
FIT for biomethane
Tenders (new)
Regulatory measures for new buildings :- set energy efficiency standards (<50 kWh/m²/year) - impose that 5 kWh/m²/year are produced from RES
Support for innovation through several calls for projects addressing different levels of maturity
Support for innovation
7
Innovation is mainly financed by the “Investments for the Future”Fund
Innovative projects regarding renewable technologies are financed ateach stage of maturity through different programs :
Calls for very low TRL projects (subsidies for 100 – 300 k€)
Calls for pilot/demonstration projects (loans with low interestrates + subsidies for projects from 1 to 20 M€) :
Examples of calls in the electricity sector :
- Floating offshore wind (projects under examination, 2 projectsalready selected)
- Marine current energy (on-going)
- Storage technologies (on-going)
- Other renewables (PV, solar thermal, onshore wind hybridprojects) (on-going)
Special calls for small companies/start-ups in order to helpthem develop an innovative product/concept (subsidies for 100– 500 k€)
Focus on Electricity
8
The objective by 2030 is to have 40% of renewable electricity inthe production mix
New targets for each renewable energy sources (RES) set in 2016
Support mechanisms are implemented in order to achievethese targets
Support mechanisms for electricity
9
Feed-in-tariffs (exist since 2000s)
Feed-in-premiums : market price + premiumsince 2016
Direct contracting
Contract with compelled operators
Reference price set for each eligibletechnology
Small installations (<1MW) :
Feed-in-tariffs(exists since 2003)
Feed-in-premiums since 2016
Tender procedures
Pay-as-bid mechanism
Selection mainly price-based + othercriteria (environmental criteria orinnovation)
Can be launched as long as thetargets are not met
Medium to large scale installations (> 1MW except PV and small hydro) :
Support mechanisms
10
Tenders are especially appropriate for renewable categories with one of the following characteristics :
Information asymmetry regarding the cost of a giventechnology (ex : PV)
Management of conflicts over the use of land and resources (ex : high-capacity biomass)
Scarcity of available areas (ex : offshore wind)
Direct contracting is better suited for :
Small-scale installations (ex : residential PV, biogas)
Mature sectors for which the costs are relatively wellknown and stable (ex : onshore wind)
For sectors with numerous potential development sites and limited conflicts of use (ex : PV, onshore wind, biogas)
