Admittedly, the production and consumption of electricity will increase sharply between now and 2050. But this will not meet all uses. Gas should still represent 25% to 30% of energy consumption in France.
However, among the renewable energies allowing us to achieve carbon neutrality by 2050 are biogas. They are, for the most part, produced from agricultural, household or even industrial waste. In France, the sector has experienced impressive growth over the past decade. “To have 100% green gas in 2050, 150 billion euros of investment are needed.
