How will the Finance Act 2024 accelerate companies' energy transition?

French industry is responsible for 20% of energy consumption and 20% of greenhouse gas emissions, including 64% emitted by the most energy-intensive industries: chemicals, aluminum and steel, cement, sugar, glass production and paper/cardboard.

With this in mind, the France 2030 program devotes 50% of its budget - i.e. 5.6 billion euros - to the eco-efficiency of industrial sites. This commitment is an integral part of the major strategies for accelerating innovation. Indeed, the "Decarbonizing Industry" strategy aims to :

  • support the development of innovative technologies for low-carbon industry (hydrogen, carbon capture, green logistics, eco-design, etc.);
  • finance the deployment of mature solutions for decarbonizing industrial sites (waste recycling, renewable energies, etc.).
