THE challenges of the sector

Since 2021, local authorities have been facing ever higher energy costs, which are cutting into their operating budget. According to a study carried out by the Senate, energy expenditure in certain municipalities has increased by 50%. For the French intermunicipality, three quarters of French intermunicipalities have seen their bills triple or even quadruple.

Schools, museums, gymnasiums, stadiums, town halls, prefectures… buildings administered by communities are numerous, and very often dispersed.

How can the operating budget of these buildings be reduced? 

How to combine regulatory constraints and energy efficiency work? 

What solutions can be found to finance this large-scale work?

Regulations / YOUR CONSTRAINTS

Tertiary decree

The tertiary decree requires buildings of more than 1,000 m2 to reduce their energy consumption by 40% by 2030, 50% by 2040, and 60% by 2050. Site owners or managers must declare annually their energy consumption on the Operat platform to monitor the progress of compliance.

BACS decree

The BACS decree requires existing public tertiary buildings whose power of electrical and thermal equipment is greater than 290 kW (between 1,900 and 3,600m2) to install a BMS system. This decree complements the tertiary decree, because the optimization of electrical and thermal installations reduces the energy consumption of a building.

APER law

The APER law requires that car parks of more than 1,500 m² associated with town halls, community buildings, prefectures or colleges be equipped with photovoltaic panels covering at least 50% of their surface area by 2026.

LOM law

The LOM law requires the installation of charging stations for electric vehicles in the parking lots of health establishments with more than 20 spaces, such as office towers and commercial spaces. These facilities must represent at least 5% of parking spaces by 2025.

Success story

Solar self-consumption for 9 public buildings in the Loir-et-Cher Department.

Installation of photovoltaic power plants for 9 buildings throughout the department. Enerlis ensures the design, construction, operation, maintenance and performance guarantee of the power plants. The objective of this operation: to reduce costs linked to the increase in energy prices in 2023 . Unconsumed energy is sold to EDF.

FAST KING

Considering the energy prices since the conflict in Ukraine, the installation of the photovoltaic plant will be quickly reimbursed.

The departmental council and Enerlis testify on the SudRadio set: how to limit the impacts of the energy crisis by exploiting the solar potential of public buildings.

In the energy and climate context that we are experiencing, the Departmental Council is carrying out an exemplary energy saving operation over a period of at least 20 years. It is now urgent to accelerate and generalize projects of this type.

Financing the energy transition

Performance guarantee contract (Esco)

Enerlis offers you an innovative approach to finance your energy transition: thanks to the performance guarantee contract (Esco) that we offer, you are sure to be able to benefit from energy efficiency work which allows you to reduce your consumption, without having to worry about financing. It is in fact Enerlis which invests and is remunerated on part of the savings generated by the solutions implemented.  

Focus on public energy performance market with deferred payment

The Enerlis Group is authorized to respond to the public energy performance market.

A public performance contract with deferred payment is a device of the Ministry of Energy Transition and Territorial Cohesion. It is a contract between a public entity and a private company like Enerlis, where the energy efficiency work is financed by Enerlis, which will then be remunerated according to the energy saving performance achieved.

Payments are made after the work has been completed and the results have been evaluated. It allows public hospitals to minimize financial risks, which facilitates access to the objectives of the Tertiary Decree and the BACS Decree imposed by the State.

EEC

The Energy Savings Certificate (EEC) system requires energy suppliers to make energy savings to compensate for their so-called “polluting” activities. They must promote energy efficiency among communities, by indirectly financing energy efficiency work.

Thanks to our CEE delegate of the Enerlis group, Loris.ENR, we are authorized to provide communities with the benefit of CEE aid, by evaluating the amount of financial aid available for energy renovation projects from the audit work phase.
