The PS deputies announced Tuesday morning that they would vote for the bill dedicated to renewable energies at the end of the afternoon.
They make a choice contrary to that of the other forces on the left, divided between abstention and opposition to the text.
“There are times to cooperate in the name of the general interest and the ecological emergency (…) This law has been the subject of a real work of dialogue between the different political camps and with the government”, has estimated the socialist Dominique Potier.

Ecologists have chosen for their part to abstain.
LFI must decide between abstention and vote against.
The communists will oppose the text.
The announcement of the PS group gives air to the executive who feared a very close vote, after the session of questions to the government.
"The law is largely unfinished but improved and deeply revised with 70 amendments from the socialist group", affirmed Dominique Potier, claiming "essential progress on the definition and regulation of agrivoltaism", combining agriculture and energy production, as well as than on "value sharing".
The group remains “determined” against pensions
"We have evacuated this bad idea of sprinkling aid to individuals", by a rebate on the bill of residents of wind turbines or photovoltaic projects.
The National Assembly favored a socialist proposal for broader territorial measures with funds to help households in fuel poverty or to finance projects in favor of biodiversity.
The PS group stressed that this favorable vote is not a "quitus".
“We will be extremely vigilant on the discussions in the joint joint committee”, between deputies and senators, warned Marie-Noëlle Battistel.
“This does not mean that we will be less determined” to fight the pension reform, insisted Arthur Delaporte elected Calvados.
The Prime Minister, Elisabeth Borne, must present the pension reform project at the end of the day, at the same time as the vote of the National Assembly on renewable energies.
Among the Communists, Sébastien Jumel also called on the left not to "don't give the government a gift" of support for the text on renewable energies "on this bad day for the future of French-style social protection" .
