The Head of State once again engaged in the game of questions and answers with Internet users this Sunday evening, as he had already done on


Emmanuel Macron had obviously enjoyed the exercise.

Two weeks after his premiere, the President of the Republic again made an appointment with the French this Sunday evening to answer their questions.

Once again, the theme was ecology.

After having once again developed its energy "at the same time" strategy, betting on both renewables and nuclear energy, boasted of the progress made by France with a view to producing "green hydrogen", a sector for which the executive intends to devote 9 billion euros, Emmanuel Macron took over Jeanne, an Internet user who considers that the electric car is an "energy scam".

The Head of State says he wants to secure the production of batteries in France, until becoming an exporter.

Projects already mentioned in Lyon and Bordeaux

“We have started to deploy the terminals.

We will meet our objective of 100,000 public terminals that we deploy, ”he continues.

Emmanuel Macron then had a word for public transport and the relaunch of night trains.

Before making his announcement of the day: “I want us to have a great national ambition, which is in ten major French cities to develop an RER network, in the ten largest French cities.

»

Emmanuel Macron did not give any details on this announcement, either in terms of timing or funding.

Some cities, however, had not waited for the presidential announcements to announce their ambitions.

The Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes region had thus evoked such a Lyon RER project, so that it becomes fully operational by 2035, for an estimated cost of between 1.4 and 7 billion euros.

The regional president had come out in favor of new trains with higher capacity that could accommodate more passengers.

Bordeaux is not left out since a public consultation on the subject was held until November 19th.
