INTERVIEW. Emmanuelle Wargon a annonce une baisse historique des tarifs de 15 % en fevrier. Mais elle n'exclut pas de futures hausses, liees aux investissements dans le nucleaire et les reseaux.
Emmanuelle Wargon, president of the Energy Regulation Commission, announces a historic 15% decrease in electricity tariffs for February.
While celebrating this positive development, she cautions that this price reduction is not permanent. The French energy sector is undergoing a major transformation, requiring substantial investments in new nuclear power plants (EPR), renewable energy development, and grid modernization. These necessary investments will likely lead to future price increases.
The main conceptual idea is that while a temporary decrease in electricity prices offers relief, significant long-term changes in the energy sector will inevitability result in price adjustments in the future.
