France as part of its multi-year energy plan (PPE) plans a massive expansion of onshore wind and PV by 2030, and less-than-expected build-up of offshore wind, while committing to a delayed but structured phase-down of nuclear power by 2035, President Emmanuel Macron said.

The country intends to triple its onshore wind output by 2030, and increase its solar PV production fivefold, Macron said during a speech at the Elysée palace explaining his plans for France’s energy transition.
