The estimate of nuclear power generation in France for 2026 and 2027 remains unchanged at 350-370 TWh. EDF nuclear generation in France for 2028 is estimated between 345-375 TWh. This estimate includes increased uncertainties on the evolution of demand and anticipation of modulation of the nuclear reactors.
This nuclear power generation estimate is based on a substantial maintenance programme, which includes the completion of the latest fourth ten-year inspections of the 900 MW reactors and the start of the fourth ten-year inspections of the 1,300 MW reactors in 2026.
Furthermore, the teams are committed to ensuring a production capacity of over 400 TWh per year.
With 94% of its electricity production decarbonised in 2024, the EDF Group is nowadays the world’s leading producer of low-carbon electricity and is pursuing its ambition to contribute to carbon neutrality by 2050. In 2024, the carbon intensity produced par the EDF Group stands at 30 gCO2/kWh, down 19% compared to 2023.
