* ATW market in France
France is Europe’s largest ATW market, recording annual demand of more than 100,000 units at its peak in 2008. Oil prices in France surged in 2007-2008, and the government offered incentives to install heat pump heating and hot water supply systems to encourage the switch to electricity. 
Following this peak, however, the European economic crisis hit, leading to a downturn in the construction market and cuts to incentives. The ATW market then began to contract. The French economy continues to struggle, but is finally showing signs of gradual recovery. French ATW market scale came to 54,500 units in 2013, an increase of 9% over 2012
