There’s much talk about a return to normal—first post-COVID, now post-Olympics. But what about business travel, especially within mainland France? Conquérir magazine dives into the topic, highlighting the strong performance of hotel investment driven by rising average room rates and the momentum of key players like EXTENDAM, a leading management firm for budget and midscale hospitality investments in Europe.

Last Thursday, the segment “On se décarbone” by Raphael Gerson (Le 5/7 hosted by Mathilde Munos on France Inter), showcased a real solution for the social acceptance of wind farms: citizen-led projects supported by Énergie Partagée.
It all began ten years ago with the Béganne wind farm in Brittany, funded and decided by over 1,000 local residents. Today, more than 500 similar initiatives exist across France: wind farms, solar plants, geothermal stations… Citizens and local governments co-manage governance and make key decisions, such as project locations.
Through Énergie Partagée, these projects allow citizens to invest in the energy transition close to home while creating local benefits—especially in job creation. The platform facilitates new projects by collecting community savings and guiding ideas through to commissioning.
💡 An inspiring model of democratic and local energy transition!
