Déllesage operations could take place this winter on two -hour slots this winter in the event of significant tensions on the electricity network. With consequences on the daily life of French.

While the Prime Minister, Elisabeth Borne, sent the 1 December a circular to the prefects to prepare the country for any power cuts this winter, the French are worried about seeing their daily life turned up in the coming weeks.

Faced with the panic wind that the announcement caused, the executive tried to calm the spirits by changing tone on Tuesday, December 6. Emmanuel Macron and Elisabeth Borne each have their turn castigated “The scenarios of fear”, repeating everything so that the load shedding is avoided while ensuring that the State was preparing for any eventuality.

Alongside the electricity transport network (RTE) and the main electricity distributor, Enedis, the government is therefore working on the establishment of precise scenarios to deal with possible load shedding this winter, which will not intervene that in the last appeal.

But what consequences could they have on our daily lives? What is planned according to situations? MO12345LEMONDE has toured the questions you can ask yourself.
