Maprimérenov ‘modification, reduced VAT in solar panels, impulse to heat pumps … The François Bayroun government published its last decrees in the official magazine, this Tuesday, September 9, while the prime minister must resign in the morning.
A decree and a decree established the new methods for the granting of Maprerenov subsidies dedicated to global renovations, as announced by the minister responsible for the housing of Valérie Létard in July, on their summer vacations, decreed in front of an excessive number of subsidy requests.
This aid is forwarded in the house that consumes the greatest amount of energy (E, F or G in the diagnosis of energy performance) and the scales are modified to reduce state spending per file.
The main novelty, which surprised the professionals last week during their dissemination, refers to the exclusion of the isolation of the walls and the installation of biomass boilers (wood and granules) of the list of eligible works for “maprimerénov ‘by gesture” by gesture “, which subsidizes the renewal work carried out in an isolate way (unlike the general renovations that combine several works).
In a limited budget, the government has chosen to rule out these two types of work, but continues to help homes that opt for a wooden stove or pellets, a system that is less expensive than a boiler or that they want to isolate its roof, because the profits in the comfort of summer are more important, the Ministry of Housing underlines.
“Autographic Energy Renewal”
The AIDS by gesture extends according to these terms until the end of 2026, unless a new government decides otherwise. For the French Construction Federation (FFB), these changes constitute a “violent brushing” of an energy policy “sacrificed on the altar of Bercy”, according to a press release.
Manuel Domergue, Director of Studies of the Disadvantage Housing Foundation, judged on LinkedIn that the Government wins “Savings in Precarious Energy” and organizes the “Self-Sabotage of Energy Renewal” by restricting access to this public aid.
In addition, the Government has published technical texts aimed at giving an impulse to the heat pump market, in difficulty, through the energy saving certificates system.
A decree, published on Tuesday, also establishes a reduced VAT of 5.5% for the installation of solar panels, as of October 1. However, this measure is backed by environmental criteria (carbon footprint in particular), which in fact disqualifies the Chinese solar panels, dominant in the market. According to Enerpan, the union that represents the sector, these expected criteria do not correspond to any module already present in the market.
