Question 5696 — local authorities

Summary

Mr. José Gonzalez questions the Minister of Ecological Transition, Biodiversity, Forests, Sea and Fisheries on the means put in place to help municipalities undertake the energy renovation of their public buildings. Local authorities are major players in the ecological transition. They must meet environmental requirements while controlling their energy expenditure, in a context where Rising costs have a heavy impact on their operating budget. However, the municipal built heritage - including schools, town halls, libraries, sports facilities and even multi-purpose rooms - is often aging, poorly insulated and energy-intensive. Although mechanisms exist, such as the Green Fund, ADEME subsidies or even financing from the Banque des Territoires, many municipalities struggle to benefit from them. The assembly files proves complex and time-consuming, in particular for small municipalities which do not have the necessary human and technical resources. Furthermore, certain aid is subject to restrictive eligibility criteria which limit its scope and slow down projects, even though the energy emergency requires rapid and effective action. Many mayors are alerting to these difficulties and asking for strengthening of State support, in particular through the simplification of administrative procedures, the acceleration of the allocation of funding and better consideration of the specific needs of rural municipalities. For example, the intracting system, which allows energy performance work to be carried out on public buildings by generating short-term energy savings, could be further promoted. and simplified to be accessible to small communities. He also wishes to know the measures that the Government is considering to facilitate access to existing systems, improve support for communities in the energy renovation of their public buildings and guarantee financial support that meets the challenges.
