On the occasion of the inauguration of the prototype solar thermodynamic CNIM in La Seyne-sur-Mer, Minister for Industry, Christian Estrosi, played on the fiber nostalgic is souvenbant 80s, “when a solar power station was built on the site Themis Targassonne in the Pyrenees-Orientales. At that time, I recall, we were ahead of all others …. We can again be at the forefront of innovation in the field of solar energy as we exemplified this new equipment, the only prototype solar thermal power plant operator to the process of Fresnel mirrors operating in France. This equipment will be the reference that we need, showcase our expertise in solar energy. It is now a jewel of our industrial and environmental excellence, which will be more decisive for the export of this technology throughout the world, “said Minister Cannon.
He continued: “The company has been able to take CNIM the turn of renewable energy, a powerful vehicle for growth and employment in the years to come. I also want to salute his strong commitment to innovation, participation in competitive clusters and CAPENERGIES DERBI, as well as its commitment and success in export markets. ” The Minister also recalled the spirit of future investments that include a component demonstrators renewable energy and green chemistry “with 1,350 billion euros, of which one third and two thirds of grants repayable advances.
“These funds will finance research demonstrators in the continuity of the fund demonstrator ADEME, platforms testing or collective testing centers, and support for experimentation park equipment before their industrialization . It is in this context that the draft CNIM to achieve an industrial demonstrator of 70,000 square meters in Llo, near the historic site of the solar cooker Topics Odeillo CNIM which has designed and manufactured the boiler . The prototype presented to us we will validate a number of technical choices. But through this opening today, I want to say that our political will to promote renewable energy is not subject to adjustment! “He was firmly told.
The minister will split a mea culpa for renewable energy development in France: “Unlike the very strong ambitions have always been ours on nuclear, it must be acknowledged that France has long been slow to adopt a real vision on renewable energy. We lacked a comprehensive vision. We thought we could save ourselves a vision of long-term future. The choices we make today should have been made twenty years ago in the wind, ten years ago in the PV field. Meanwhile, our competitors have taken us before heading into new markets that are now carrying. We are paying the price. Today, France is obliged to equip themselves with these technologies to maintain its own consumption with mostly imported materials.
This July 26, Christian Estrosi had decided to tell the truth: “The truth is that we have failed to take full advantage of the movement that was beginning then. The truth is that if we created jobs, they were only in service jobs, while these are real manufacturing jobs our country needs! The International Energy Agency estimates that in 2050, 11% of global electricity production will come from solar thermal. Morocco, a country bordering the Mediterranean in France, decided to invest up to 2 Giga Watts of solar energy with a first tranche of 500 Mega Watts which will be built by 2015. Much of the Mediterranean Solar Plan will be conducted in solar thermal. The market for solar thermal concentration is emerging in countries with large sunny Southern Europe, Middle East, North Africa, the United States or the deserts of India and China. ”
“How could we suggest that France would be in a worse position than other countries to meet these needs, so it has its own soil similar resources and above all a very strong capacity to innovate? How could it be that our French companies take away from this tremendous source of growth and employment? There is no time to procrastinate. Today is that French industry must be ready as the U.S., as the Germans, like Spain and Israel. I wish that we take advantage of the last great research potential, skills and knowledge that is in our country, “he concluded. The prototype CNIM has apparently it inspired the Minister Christian Estrosi now totally committed to the cause of solar. Speech facade or philosophy of funds, time will tell!
