A decree will later specify the new selected duration

The Senate completed the building pane review and planning of the Grenelle 2 Bill without reassured tenants advocates. The text reinforces the role of the diagnosis of energy performance (ECD), this "mini-étude" cost on average EUR 100, which measures the energy of a local consumption. However the National Confederation of housing, which organizes, on 5 October, the day of the law of the people, opposed the use of early childhood development such that it is statutory Boutin on housing and his decree to be published here in a month. The owner, if energy renovation of housing, is indeed authorized to ask the tenant to reverse all the months half of stimulus of loads on the basis of the DPE. "Must be able to verify that there is an energy-saving and power change the amount paid if the economy is not at the DPE estimates, but this is not possible, rebelled Serge Incerti Formentini, President of the National Confederation of housing (CNL).". "Indeed, we said that we did not want a DPE but a thermal study", more serious, but far too expensive held Parliament. Also the question arises of the choice of the firm commissioned to early childhood development, which will be the only responsibility of the lessor. On these points, the Senate did not wish edit the device by an amendment inserted in the Grenelle 2.

DPE mentioned in advertisements

Other strong provisions enhancing early childhood development, adopted by the Senate the Grenelle 2: for any sale or rental of premises (including a commercial lease), it should be automatically provided to the candidate buyer or tenant without that he has need to ask. Please note that legal life of ten years of the DPE is removed. A decree will later specify the new selected duration. Moreover, effective January 1, 2011, the energy performance should be mentioned in the real estate advertisements of sale or rental. Finally, the condominiums with heating (or cooling) collective will be required to perform a DPE within five years from the publication of the Grenelle 2 Act. The amendment imposing a period of two years only was rejected. "There are 6,000 diagnostic, it is difficult to ask them to the ECD in two years on millions of condominiums," said the Secretary of State for housing, Benoist Apparu, Senate debates.

The control of the energy performance will also be necessary to the masters to work constructing or renovating buildings. They will have to produce, after the completion of the work, a certificate of compliance thermal nature will be specified by order.

High provision "politicians will no longer oppose energy renovations amending the right-of-way to the ground or the exterior appearance, such as photovoltaic panels", welcomes the rapporteur of the text in the Senate, Dominique Braye.

Public park, if the principle of écoprêts to rate zero in the Commons into thermal renovation was rejected, they will receive a package of loans at reduced rate. Energy performance improvements will be made in the buildings and tertiary or in which a public service activity is exercised within a period of eight years from January 1, 2012.
