    French electricity prices are not real prices. Look at the debt levels of EdF

      You mean the company the french state squished for profit for 2 decades and that during the pandemic has been forced to subsidized electricity prices for everyone?

        Yes, that was my point. The electricity prices they charge are not representative of their costs

          Ok but in the opposite direction you suggested

          You alluded to the fact it has been subsidized, but it’s the opposite, probably the program would be much better if EDF hadn’t been treated like a cash cow
