Total Energy Consumption
Consumption per capita stood at 3.1 toe in 2022 and is around 7% above the EU average. Electricity consumption per capita is 13% higher than the EU average due to the high penetration of electric heating (6 300 kWh in 2022).

Crude Oil Production
In 2022, imports of crude oil rebounded by 21% to 41 Mt, due to a rise in the production of refined products, which increased by 16% to 42 Mt. Consequently, imports of refined products declined by 9% to 41 Mt.
Previously, imports of crude oil and production of refined products were on a declining trend, decreasing by 6%/year on average between 2011 and 2021, whereas imports of refining products remained relatively stable, at around 40-45 Mt/year.

Coal Consumption
Since 2013, coal consumption has decreased by 5.8%/year to 9.7 Mt (-48% over 2013-2022), including -10% in 2022 as a result of the shutdown of virtuarlly all French coal-fired power plants. In 2022, the energy crisis did not lead to an increase in coal consumption by the power sector. Coal is mostly consumed in industry (50%), power plants (25%), and other sectors (23%).

Renewable in % Electricity Production
The country missed by 4 points the target set in the European Directive on renewables for a 23% share of renewables in final consumption in 2020 (19.1% in 2020), especially for electricity (24.8% in 2020 vs a target of 27%) and heating (23.3% vs 33%). The new target set in the NECP for 2030 is a share of 33% of renewables in the final consumption (19.3% in 2021). According to the PPE (2020), this share should reach 35-38% in 2028 (49-53% of which in 2028 for electricity).
