Story details

A quarter-hour record dated 10 October 2026 in RTE's national real-time éCO2mix dataset lists actual consumption of 45,015 MW at 19:45 Paris time. The same record shows nuclear generation of 38,331 MW, wind at 5,300 MW, hydro at 5,579 MW, gas at 581 MW and solar at 220 MW.

Physical cross-border exchanges were reported at -6,232 MW; under the source's sign convention, this corresponds to net exports. The estimated carbon intensity attributed to generation was 15 gCO₂/kWh. These are real-time quarter-hour power and estimation indicators, not a daily energy total or a lifecycle emissions measure.
