Summary
Mr. René Pilato draws the attention of the Minister of Ecological Transition, Biodiversity and International Negotiations on Climate and Nature to the failures of the energy performance diagnostics (DPE) control system. Made opposable and now essential both for access to rental and for the evaluation of the value of real estate and eligibility for certain public aid, the DPE takes today have major legal, economic and social consequences for both owners and tenants. However, numerous reports, press surveys and field feedback report worrying practices, such as diagnostics carried out in a few minutes without in-depth inspection of housing, clearly inconsistent results for comparable properties or even the excessive use of automated methods. to the detriment of the real analysis of the building. The result is that certain buildings are assigned a degraded rating without any link to their actual energy consumption, although it is objectively verifiable from electricity and gas suppliers. These abuses highlight the limits of a system based on private companies as well as insufficiently controlled certification bodies even though the State has done so. choice to give the DPE a restrictive scope, in particular by progressively banning the rental of housing classified G in 2025, F in 2028 then E in 2034. The insufficiency of effective controls and the lack of dissuasive nature of the sanctions thus call into question the capacity of the State to guarantee equal treatment of citizens and the legal certainty attached to this system. In the current context of strong tension on the market real estate and the necessary intensification of the ecological transition, he would like to know how the Government intends to strengthen public control of companies carrying out energy performance diagnostics as well as certification bodies and guarantee the reliability, homogeneity and credibility of DPEs throughout the territory.
