The French power grid distributes electricity with a very low average of CO 2 emissions per kWh: less than 40 g in 2014, compared to the European average of 325 g of CO 2 emissions per kWh. France derives about 75% of its electricity from nuclear energy, with renewable energy accounting for about 19% of France’s electricity last year.
