Their mission was to support the country\u2019s reconstruction by ensuring a reliable and efficient energy supply.<\/p>\n<p>In the 1950s, GDF supported the rise of natural gas, which gradually replaced town gas. The discovery of the Lacq field in the Pyr\u00e9n\u00e9es-Atlantiques in 1957 led to the rollout of a national network of exceptional density.<\/p>\n<p>Faced with growing demand, GDF reinvented itself in the early 1970s by signing import contracts with the Netherlands and Algeria, and by developing storage and transmission infrastructure.<\/p>\n<p>In the early 2000s, the opening of the energy market to competition transformed GDF. Distribution and transmission activities were separated, giving birth to GRDF and GRTgaz (renamed NaTran in 2025).<\/p>\n            <\/div>\n          \n                  <\/div>\n      <\/div>\n\n    <\/div>\n  <\/div>\n\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div id=\"block_5076b5877fc74e98458854452f275a12\" class=\"cp-wysiwyg teq-container nj-aura nj-aura--blue\">\n    <div class=\"teq-grid !pt-0\">\n        <div class=\"col-span-6 xl:col-start-2 xl:col-span-10 lg:col-start-1 lg:col-span-12 \">\n                        <div class=\"teq-wysiwyg\">\n                <div data-trad data-trad-html><h2 style=\"text-align: center\">The merger of giants: GDF SUEZ<\/h2>\n<p style=\"text-align: center\">2008 marked a major milestone in our history.

In 2020, this commitment became our purpose: to act to accelerate the transition towards a carbon-neutral economy.<\/p>\n<p>In 2021, we adopted an ambitious strategic plan targeting Net Zero Carbon by 2045. ENGIE refocused on its core energy businesses, accelerated in renewables and invested in batteries and energy storage. Between 2017 and 2024, we reduced our CO\u2082 emissions by 41% and increased our renewable capacity by 88%.<\/p>\n<p>The 2022 energy crisis, triggered by the invasion of Ukraine, confirmed our vision: to develop local renewable energy to guarantee Europe\u2019s energy sovereignty.<\/p>\n<p>Today, drawing on more than 150 years of history and thanks to our 90,000 employees, we invest an
