  ... In France
European directives, Grenelle de l'Environnement - France is introducing an ambitious policy to achieve its objective of 23% renewable energy in energy consumption by 2020 by introducing miscellaneous application methods for buildings, transport, industry and agriculture. All sectors are involved and the authorities (regional, local, municipalities) are in the front line!
The latest announcement of the french government on May 15, 2009 presented the French Solar Fields plan with a first investment of 1,5 billion euros for the 3 coming years. Each French Region must have at least one Solar field and some Regions (mainly south) will have a minimum of two of 10 MW each.
France is aiming to multiply by 400 its solar photovoltaic sector by 2020…!

Among the partners
 The Eco Maires - French Association of Mayors
"Energy is a dimension that must be included in any local project, in an international context where increased raw materials and reduced natural resources link the ecological and financial cost more than ever to all public action. There must be a consistent approach between key players (elected representatives, State, association, industrialists) and we should make it our business to participate in discussion and meeting opportunities like Energaïa."
