TEN, the electricity transmission network responsible for the security of the country’s electron supply, is gradually focusing its scenarios on what the energy transition will mean in concrete terms in France. Or, rather, it makes her curves take off. There consumption of electricity will increase faster and stronger than expected. According to the update of its projections presented on Wednesday, RTE is now counting on consumption of 580 to 640 TWh (terawatt hours) in 2035 against 460 TWh in 2022. This was the high hypothesis of its reference report, “Energy Futures 2050», published at the end of 2021 (the crossing point in 2035 was at 540 TWh) becomes the base scenario.
