France’s utility solar market expands at a CAGR near 13%, fueled by the government's renewable energy targets and decreasing system costs. Drivers are strong policy support and growing corporate demand for renewables. Constraints include lengthy permitting processes and grid connection challenges. Opportunities exist in agrivoltaics and solar hydrogen production. Trends indicate increasing solar plus storage deployments and use of floating solar plants. The French energy transition law and European climate ambitions reinforce market growth, while local opposition to large solar farms remains a key restraint.
