According to the first industrial barometer published on Wednesday by the French Ministry of Industry, 29 of the 201 new industrial site openings counted in France in 2023 were linked to the green industry and circular economy sectors. The sector includes recycling, renewable energies and the production of hydrogen-powered batteries, according to the ministry. Alongside the food industry, it is one of the most dynamic sectors, which „shows that, beyond the rhetoric, the transformation of the French industrial landscape is already underway“, the Directorate-General for Enterprise is pleased to report.
