Summary by AI BETAClose X
Patrick Pouyanné, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of TotalEnergies (Paris:TTE) (LSE:TTE) (NYSE:TTE), and Bernard Fontana, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of the EDF Group, today signed a Nuclear Production Allocation Contract (Contrat d’Allocation de Production Nucléaire – CAPN) for a duration of 12 years, starting on January 1, 2028.
Under this agreement, EDF will allocate to TotalEnergies a share of the output of its operating nuclear fleet. This allocation will enable TotalEnergies to cover around 60% of the electricity needs of its refining and chemicals sites in France, estimated at 400 MW.
This contract will allow TotalEnergies to benefit from the competitiveness of nuclear power generation, while enabling EDF to share the risks and costs associated with the variability of this production. EDF will remain solely responsible for the operation of its assets.
Patrick Pouyanné, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of TotalEnergies, said: “I am delighted with this win‑win agreement, the result of constructive dialogue with EDF, which will enable our electricity‑intensive industrial sites in France to secure, over the long term, a significant share of their electricity supply with competitive low‑carbon power.”
Bernard Fontana, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of the EDF Group, added: “I welcome this agreement with TotalEnergies, in the service of energy and industrial sovereignty. By guaranteeing the refining and chemicals activities concerned access to competitive, sovereign and low‑carbon electricity, EDF provides them with the long‑term visibility they need to ensure their sustainability.”
