Energy bill of France and GDP




by Christophe » 18/01/07, 09:02

Interesting document on the cost of energy for France:

https://www.econologie.com/energie-factu ... -3841.html

The energy bill continues its flight (+ 34,7% to 38,26 Md €)
and exceeds the level of the first oil shock.

A 38,26 billion (€ bn) in 2005, the energy bill of France continues its soaring: + 34,7%, after already + 24,1% in 2004 5,4% and + in 2003. It thus exceeds the level of the first oil shock (about 29 billion € in euros 2005) without reaching that of 1981 (49,6 billion €) and weighs three times more than 1997 1 (13,12 billion €).


Its cost is compared to the GDP (up to 5% in 81-82) ... on the other hand how is it compared to the GDP: inputs or outputs? :?:

GDP is GDP, the import / export balance has no influence on GDP.

GDP is the sum of all income received: wages, turnover, etc ... by a country

Do not agree with you Elephant ...

For my part, the GDP is in indirect connection, but in conjunction qd even with the added value of a product. And, salespeople have a hard time interpreting it to sell the product at its fair value and not at a discounted value because so-called labor is too expensive ... It can also be an added value for a product !!

I'm waiting to hear what you think.

False ... the salary of civil servants (for example) does not enter the GDP ... The GDP is the sum of the added value created by the companies, it is thus no longer the CA ...

But in fact:

Theoretically, there are three ways to calculate the GDP of a country or region: by production, by expenditure and by income. For practical reasons, the value added method is mainly used.

I forgot something for cqfd:
Therefore, since value added is calculated, GDP is related to the import / export balance.

Besides, I had read a super interesting article on the comparison of exports between Germany and France in 2006 -> it proves a lot about our present and consequently our future !!
There is a CERTAIN LACK of added value in France and I let you conclude what it means.

That's it, I read this article. 9a was hard to find:

In October 2006, Germany posted a record trade surplus, at 17,3 billion euros. Since the beginning of the year, the country has accumulated a surplus of 156 billion euros. On the other hand, France regrets a deficit of 20 billion over the same period. Decryption of this shift.

It's unheard of since reunification. In October, Germany recorded a record trade surplus of 17,3 billion euros, thanks to a further rise in exports (+ 2,6%) and a decline in imports (-0,2%). In total, since the beginning of the year, the balance of the trade balance is 156 billion euros. In comparison, the French foreign trade is pale: in September, the deficit reached 1,3 billion euros, and ... 19,9 billion euros cumulated since January.

Several factors explain the performance recorded on the other side of the Rhine. First, over the past ten years, German companies have made immense efforts to improve their competitiveness, through a mixture of offshoring and reduction of wage costs. Since the fall of the Wall, manufacturers have massively transferred their production to the East. Today, they re-import parts made at low cost in these countries, to assemble them before re-exporting them. Goods "made in Germany" are thus produced in reality 40% abroad, according to the calculations of economist Hans-Werner Sinn, of the Ifo Institute in Munich, who found a name for this phenomenon: " the bazaar economy ". These relocations, as well as the labor market reforms initiated by the previous government, put enormous pressure on the unions: in order not to always see more jobs leaving abroad, they were forced to play the game of controlling salary costs and accepting the abolition of bonuses or increases, or even the return to 40 hours per week without salary compensation.

Other explanations: geographical and sectoral specialization of companies. As we know, the strengths of the German economy are the automobile and machine tools. The latter sector corresponds precisely to the needs of fast-growing emerging countries - the Eastern European countries, and especially China. It is also to the countries outside the European Union that Germany exports the most: its sales have increased by 31,2% over one year, against 17,2% towards the other countries of the EU. All the opposite of France, which, proportionally, trade more with its neighbors ... and especially with Germany. This explains in part the lowest performance in France, German domestic demand being sluggish for several years.

To this must be added three reasons, highlighted by the economists Lionel Fontagné and Patrick Artus, in a report for the Council of Economic Analysis published in March 2006. First, they found that "exporting firms are often larger than non-exporters". However, Germany benefits from a fabric of large SMEs much larger than France, where young companies are struggling to grow. And above all, German firms would offer their foreign customers a more varied and innovative product range than their French counterparts. The latest explanation, according to these experts, is the weakness, already mentioned, of consumption in Germany: companies failing to place their products on their own market, they have been forced to seek new outlets.

Oil boosted French energy bill in 2011

Factory new the 19 July 2012

61,4 billion euros, a record for the energy bill that has almost quadrupled in 20 years.

The Ministry of Ecology published a report, this Thursday, July 19, on the French energy balance in 2011. "The energy bill alone represents 88% of France's trade deficit", underlines the General Commission for Sustainable Development .

Compared to 2010, the addition thus swells by almost a third, salted by the prices of fossil fuels, which display on average + 40% over one year for oil, + 39% for gas and + 33% for the coal.

A salty addition that now represents 3,1% of GDP. This is beyond 3% achieved in 2008, during the previous record. First in charge, the oil that represents 82% of the energy bill in front of gas (19%), electricity exports to lighten the note slightly (-4%).

France must now export for 56 days to pay the equivalent of the energy bill.

And the simple functional solution to www.dlsc.ca to heat without consuming anything, free in perpetuity, recovering the summer sun wasted for the winter, continues always to be ignored and scorned everywhere in Europe.

It can thus, with almost nothing technical studies to adapt by optimizing its cost, save all heating, more than 30% of the bill above!
