- eloisant 6y agoNo, the majority of French households are using gaz. The reason France faces power cuts could be because they recently shut down a nuclear powerplant (which is a non-sense considering nuclear doesn't emit any CO2 and we'll have to buy coal electricity from Germany instead...)
- tannhaeuser 6y agoWhat? In Germany, they tell us we have to buy evil nuclear power from France ;) And the rise in EV sales is because they're being subsidized left and right, including installation of wall boxes with 900 EUR. It's antisocial, though, because you've got to own a house in the first place. And so is the ongoing exodus of producing small cars in most of EU's car industry because of draconian Euro 7 emission requirements impossible to meet at a reasonable price point; ie. the enormous cost of maintaining roads being financed via taxes are only benefitting those who'll be able to afford long-distance EVs and undesired (from CO2 PoV) e-commerce/road logistics.
