French power supply was reduced by 14.4 gigawatts (GW) at nuclear, thermal and hydropower plants on Friday due to the strike against the government's planned pension overhaul, a CGT spokesperson said.
That equates to 22% of current total power supply, data from grid operator RTE showed. However, France was not importing power from neighbors, suggesting that domestic supply is enough to meet demand. (Reporting by Forrest Crellin Editing by Tomasz Janowski)
