In 2021, the highest production volume of solar electricity in France was in the administrative regions of New Aquitaine, Occitania, and Provence-Alps-Azure Coast, all located in the south of the country. In particular, New Aquitaine's solar energy production exceeded 3800 gigawatt hours. On the contrary, the region Island of France, with the French capital of Paris, only produced around 150 gigawatt hours of solar energy.
