With six months to go before the presidential election, Macron described France 2030 as a way for him to "cope with the great challenges of our time" and establish "21st century humanism" in the near future.

Macron said in his speech at the Elysée Palace that his first belief was that innovation and industrialization were inseparable, and France was wrong to think that innovation could be made and heavy industry would decline. Macron said: "Our country will realize its own reindustrialization through technology start-ups and so-called'deep technology'." Large industrial groups will survive, transform and win the competition."

Therefore, "reshaping nuclear power" is listed as the primary goal of Macron's plan, with 1 billion euros (1.2 billion US dollars) allocated for demonstration of small nuclear reactor technology. He stated that the plan will be “quickly launched with a very clear first project”, adding, “In fact, we have to launch multiple projects from different technology series.”

Macron said that as a core production technology, nuclear energy is at the top of the plan. Continued development of nuclear power "is absolutely key, because we know we will continue to need this technology," he said. Regarding large-scale reactors, Macron told the crowd that he will be able to make a decision on the possible construction of up to six large-scale reactors "in the next few weeks". It is expected that Prime Minister Jean Castex and the transmission network operator RTE will complete one A key study.

Macron's second goal is also closely related to the country's nuclear sector. He said that hydrogen energy "is indeed an energy sector, and we can do this because we have assets. We have a major asset, and it is nuclear energy again."

Macron stated that the possibility of using clean electricity from 56 nuclear reactors in France is "a huge change" and "will make us a leader in the emerging hydrogen energy industry." He foresaw that hydrogen would replace liquid fuels for road transportation. In the field of hydrogen energy, "We have very good research, we have very good participants: Air Liquide and some other manufacturers. In addition, we have a network of start-ups, equipment manufacturers, entrepreneurs, and innovators. , They are ready, who is organized."Macron said that serious commitments to hydrogen are needed to avoid repeating the country’s mistakes in renewable energy, which he said is too little investment. "We must develop our industrial products in hydrogen, so we invest heavily in this area. This means that by 2030, France must be able to rely on its soil to have at least two super electrolyzer plants in order to produce hydrogen and all technologies on a large scale. It needs its use."

"It is this triptych," Macron said. "Nuclear, hydrogen and renewable energy" and its breakthrough innovations "will enable us to produce energy and electricity in different ways, and start to produce better, Contribute to a more carbon-free world." "As you can see, we have real leverage. We have real historical advantages, but we must accept the investment I just mentioned to achieve these goals," Macron said .

In addition to the 8 billion euros for these energy projects, Macron also said that France will “invest on a large scale” to help decarbonize existing heavy industries. "This will be public and private investment," he said, "but it is impossible without public investment. It is unsustainable." France plans to invest 30 billion euros in total in 2030. Macron also stated that he will use the incoming France as the rotating EU presidency to introduce a mechanism to punish imports from industries in countries with less stringent decarbonization policies.
