Abstract: The french tax on road freight transport was presented on october 2008, one year after the "Grenelle de l'Environnement" as an instrument aimed at reducing GHG (Green House Gas) emissions. But the study of the french model of energy fiscality reveals that not only is it unable to internalise GHG (Green House Gas) externalities, but that introducing the new tax would increase the previous distorsions. In this context, the French tax on road freight transport cannot be considered as an ecotax, but just as a road use fee. This corresponds to the way it is calculated.
