Question 14323 — energy and fuels

Summary

Mr. François Jolivet draws the attention of the Minister of State, Minister of Ecological and Inclusive Transition, to the energy renovation of second homes. Today, there are numerous schemes that allow residents to carry out energy renovation work in their homes (tax credit for energy transition, zero-rate eco-loan). But most of these tax measures are only applicable on main residences. However, the number of second homes has continued to increase in France for 30 years (an increase of 28%). According to INSEE, in January 2015, there were around 3.3 million out of a total of just over 35 million housing units. The owners of these second homes who wish to carry out energy renovation work are therefore often helpless when faced with the complexity of the procedures and the “ jungle” assistance devices which are often reserved for primary residences. However, the second home market is virtuous for the economic development of the real estate sector and the sustainability of rural areas: renovations allow for better energy performance, increased capacity in terms of resale or rental on the market and the preservation of buildings sometimes doomed to ruin. At a time when the Government is supporting the rehabilitation of city centers, it appears necessary not to neglect these approximately 3 million housing units and to adopt a global vision of the real estate stock. He asks what energy renovation assistance measures are available to owners of second homes. Furthermore, he asks what measures are planned to simplify the procedures and unify eligibility.
