Who is EDF ?

EDF (Électricité de France) was created in 1946 following the nationalization of French electricity distributors. The company is wholly owned by the French State and is headquartered in Paris. Until the liberalization of the electricity market in 2007, EDF held a monopoly on electricity supply to households in France. Today, it remains the historical electricity supplier and is the only one authorized to provide regulated electricity tariffs in France.

EDF serves around 41.5 million customers worldwide (2024), employing over 190,000 people. Its activities cover electricity and gas supply, energy production, distribution, and network management. EDF is a major producer of electricity, particularly through its extensive nuclear fleet in France, and also invests in renewable energies and energy efficiency solutions for individuals, businesses, and local authorities.
