Usager of Public Service: Traditionally, individuals in France were considered users of energy services provided by state-controlled entities, not active consumers. They had no choice of provider and were passive recipients of electricity and gas services.
Service Public: A government-mandated provision of essential services (like energy), governed by principles of mutability (adaptability), equality, and continuity, ensuring universal access and non-discrimination.
Nationalization & State Monopoly: Post-World War II, France nationalized energy sectors, creating EDF (electricity) and GDF (gas), establishing a regulated, public service framework until the early 2000s.
Liberalization & Opening to Competition: European directives (1996 for electricity, 1998 for gas) mandated market liberalization, leading France to open energy supply markets to multiple providers, transforming users into consumers with choice.
