Total anthropogenic greenhouse gas emissions (including LULUCF) in France are projected to decrease to roughly 256 million metric tons of carbon dioxide equivalent in 2050. This would be a reduction of 32 percent compared with 2021 levels. In 2023, the French government set a new emissions reduction target of 50 percent below 1990 levels by 2030.
Greenhouse gas (GHG) emission projections in France 'with existing measures' from 2021 to 2050
(in million metric tons of carbon dioxide equivalent)
The Governance of the Energy Union and Climate Action ((EU) 2018/1999) requires Member States to report national projections of anthropogenic GHG emissions. Every two years, each EU Member State shall report GHG projections in a ‘with existing measures’ scenario for the years 2020, 2025, 2030, 2035 and 2040, by gas (or group of gases) and by sector. National projections shall take into consideration any policies and measures adopted at Union level. The reported data are quality checked by the EEA and its European Topic Centre for Climate Change Mitigation and Energy (ETC/CME).
