Energy audit subsidy for buildings

Principles and conditions

How to proceed ?

The Government offers a subsidy to owners in order to anticipate the legal obligation to proceed to an energy audit of their building.

To sum up, the sooner the owner gets an energy audit the better : he will then receive a subsidy. On the contrary, he won’t get any subsidy if he waits until the legal deadline.

The reimbursed percentage depends on the year the audit was completed and on the date of the completion of the building, according to the following chart :

Reimbursement chart according to the year of completion of the building and on the year during which the audit was completed

The buildings completed before 1930 are the last ones concerned by the legal obligation since they represent less than 20% of the total surface area and because they are generally energy sufficient.

The date indicated on the audit invoice will be crucial to set the reimbursement rate.

An upper limit amount is set according to the reimbursed percentage :
