EDF, France, and nuclear

The EDF Group generates most of its energy from nuclear power sources but also generates and distributes hydropower, wind power, and other renewables, as well as fossil fuel-powered energy. In 2017, EDF acquired most of Areva’s reactor business operations. Areva was previously a public French company specializing in nuclear power and renewable energy. France has always been one of the largest consumers of nuclear energy in the world and has almost 60 operable nuclear reactors as of 2019. The country remains active in developing nuclear technology and exports reactors, fuel products, and services.
