As of 2023, France's electricity, gas, steam, and air conditioning supply sector employed a significant workforce. The forecast for 2024 to 2028 indicates a stable employment level of about 133,000 persons through 2027, with a slight increase to 134,000 in 2028.
The lack of variation between 2024 to 2027 suggests a stagnant employment growth which could be due to automation and efficiency improvements. From 2023 to 2028, the average annual change (CAGR) is minimal, reinforcing a trend of stability in employment figures over the period.
Future trends to watch for include the impact of technological advancements, governmental policy changes, and the push towards renewable energy sources, all of which can affect employment dynamics in the sector. Other considerations are sustainability initiatives and global energy market shifts that could further influence labor needs.
