Like what amazing technology did France apply, since I know they don’t have geothermal power. Like what can produce energy with such low emissions. Why is the world not simulating this
Nuclear, however they keep having problems with it because it’s so phenomenally expensive in comparison to renewables (they often buy from Germany in times of overproduction), too hot weather, not enough water… and then there’s the problem to get enough refined fuel rods, since the biggest seller of those is indeed Russia.
The 2023’ numbers of Germany were indeed awful (worsened by those LNG terminals and other emergency measures due to Russia’s invasion in Ukraine), it gets better quickly though. The Green Party is doing its thing; we just have to hope the next, probably far-right government doesn’t undo all of this progress like we see in other countries.

Hydro and quite a bit of it.
10% of yearly electricity production in France comes from hydro (1)
