Well, maybe it is all the nukes...
# France derives 75% of its electricity from nuclear energy. This is due to a long-standing policy based on energy security.
# France is the world's largest net exporter of electricity, and gains over EUR 3 billion per year from this.
# France has been very active in developing nuclear technology, and reactor technology is a major export.
I mean, the country is tiny and has 59 nuclear reactors.
