As the chart shows, that’s far more than the global average, just under 10%. Even though its share in France has declined slightly in recent years, it’s still [its dominant power source](https://ourworldindata.org/grapher/electricity-prod-source-stacked?stackMode=relative&country=~FRA). Nuclear power is a [low-carbon electricity source](https://ourworldindata.org/safest-sources-of-energy), allowing France to have a very clean electricity mix for decades. Per unit of electricity, France [emits far less carbon dioxide](https://ourworldindata.org/grapher/carbon-intensity-electricity) (CO2) than its neighbors and has some of the lowest-carbon power in the world. The global average is 438 grams of CO2 per kilowatt-hour of electricity generated. In France, this figure is 85 grams.
