According to sources, due to the disruption of liquefied natural gas supply caused by conflicts in the Middle East, the French state-owned electric utility has postponed making a final decision on the sale of shares in its Italian subsidiary Edison.

This postponement reflects the chain reaction caused by geopolitical turmoil on the European energy market. As an important part of Europe's energy structure, disruptions in the liquefied natural gas supply chain are forcing multiple energy companies to re-evaluate their asset disposal plans. Industry insiders point out that under the current unstable situation, Electricité de France is more inclined to maintain strategic flexibility. The group originally planned to optimize its asset structure by selling part of its stake in Edison, but it will now prioritize ensuring the stability of energy supply.
