Question 8679 — energy and fuels

Summary

Mr. Nicolas Démoulin alerts the Minister of Territorial Cohesion about the installation of high voltage lines. In the Valsiére district of Grabels, a town in the inner suburbs of the Montpellier metropolis, the competent authorities have made plots of land suitable for construction even though they are overlooked by high voltage lines of 225,000 and 63,000 volts. This proximity to high voltage lines can, according to some studies be factors in health problems. Also, the law applies a precautionary principle in order not to expose certain groups such as children, by limiting their exposure to one microtesla for eight hours of presence. The children of Grabels live below these lines 24 hours a day and for some, less than ten meters away. In view of the recommendations of ANSES and the DGS, he questions the advisability of limiting immediate proximity of homes with high voltage lines without offering burial solutions capable of limiting the risks of populations exposed to electromagnetic waves.
