  Yes I know, those gas plants were built by Total and Engie as a part of their renewable strategy. The irony is insane here. Before 2010 and the privatisation of the grid, France only had a single working gas plant on the whole grid and not even connected to the pipelines, it was a plant reusing factory gas. Those gas plants are brand new and there to support the new wind and solar installs. Check the construction dates here, it's really obvious: https://fr.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Liste_des_centrales_thermiques_%C3%A0_flamme_en_France https://fr.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Liste_des_centrales_thermiqu...
