I think the main effect is indirect. Not sure about France, but in many other countries in Europe gas is used extensively for both local and remote heating. If the price of gas soars, the industries that can will switch to electricity, making that price rise considerably as well. Europe already saw record highs in electricity prices in many regions last winter.
