The French market, including its overseas territories, is back on the growth track, rising by 18.9% to reach an installed base of 164,000 m 2 in 2021. It should be noted that more than half of the French market is in its overseas territories, approximately 90,000 m2. In 2020, France''s total solar thermal cumulated energy was about 2.2 TWh (+2.8 %
PowiDian has been selected by the Ministry of Armed Forces to equip Glorieuse Island with a solar power plant combined with a hybrid battery and hydrogen storage. Glorieuse Island, located in the scattered islands between Mayotte and Madagascar, is part of the French Southern and Antarctic Territories (TAAF) of the Ministry of the Armed Forces.
France is aiming to increase its solar PV capacity from 11.5 GW in March 2021 to 23 GW by the end of 2023. The country offers feed-in tariffs for small-scale solar PV up to 100 kWp on rooftops for self-consumption, with a specific grid tariff for collective users and exemption from the domestic tax on electricity for projects under 1 MW

French Southern Territories, comprising of several islands in the Indian Ocean, are isolated with a harsh climate, making technology and telecommunications development challenging. The territories have no indigenous population, with only temporary French military personnel, scientists, officials and support staff residing.
The combination of strict land legislation, elaborate permitting and a fiercely competitive solar developer market trying to meet ambitious PV deployment targets is causing issues for the

France is aiming to increase its solar PV capacity from 11.5 GW in March 2021 to 23 GW by the end of 2023. The country offers feed-in tariffs for small-scale solar PV up to 100 kWp on rooftops for self-consumption, with a specific grid tariff for collective users and exemption from the domestic tax on electricity for projects under 1 MW. However, a proposal to reduce solar PV subsidies for ongoing projects until 2030 has created controversy, affecting the sector''s growth
French company SolarinBlue has been awarded €6m ($6.44m) by the French Government for its offshore solar project as part of the France 2030 programme. The programme, operated by the French Agency for Ecological Transition, ADEME, will support the Méga Sète pre-commercial demonstrator project for a floating solar farm in the Sète-Frontignan

that systems installed in the southern half of mainland France and in overseas territories will generate more, up to 1 400 kWh/kW. Little data is available on off -grid applications as there
The French overseas territory of New Caledonia has hailed the switch-on of a 16MWp solar farm, with battery energy storage to be later attached, and another standalone 5MWh battery project as significant steps towards ''100% renewable energy'' targets.
France is currently on course to miss its target to commission 20.1GW of solar power by late 2023. In the third quarter of 2022, just 15.8GW was in service and the gap is now too broad for this year''s target to be achieved. The failure is, in part, due to a disappointing year for solar power development in France.

The insolation in France ranges from 3 sun hours/day in the north to 5 sun hours/day in the south. The output of a solar array is a function of age, temperature, tilt, shading, tracking, and insolation. France is aiming to increase its solar PV capacity from 11.5 GW in March 2021 to 23 GW by the end of 2023.
The average size of residential solar PV systems is estimated to be 3.24 kW moving to 2030. The technical potential for residential solar PV in France is estimated at 34,810 MW. The payback time for residential Solar PV in France is 25.1 years as of 2015.
In 2016, France was ranked 4th in the EU by installed capacity and 14th in terms of PV capacity by inhabitant at 107.3 Wp/Inhab compared to the EU average of 197.8 Wp/Inhab for the year. The country's largest completed solar park to date was the 300 MW Cestas Solar Park.
ENGIE is a gas utility also present in the development and generation of electricity capacity - and has the biggest solar portfolio in France at around 1 GW. The public utility Soregies, the largest of Frances public utilities, serves a population of approximately 150 000.
France photovoltaic sector relies strongly on imports, particularly for commercial and industrial systems. Imports mainly come from other European countries, in particular Germany. This chapter aims to provide information on the benefits of PV for the economy.
France’s electricity industry is highly concentrated but not vertically integrated in theory.
