5. Decree prohibiting the installation of heating and domestic hot water production systems consuming primarily fuels with a high level of greenhouse gas emissions in buildings for residential or professional use

6. Heating and domestic hot water production appliances consuming primarily fuels with a high level of greenhouse gas emissions, in particular coal or fuel oil.

7. -

8. Articles L111-9 and L111-10 of the Construction and Housing Code allow for the levels of energy and environmental performance compatible with the objectives of the national energy policy, respectively for new and existing buildings, to be defined by decree of the Council of State.

Following the decisions taken by the Ecological Defence Council on 27 July 2020, the notified draft establishes the prohibition on the installation of heating and domestic hot water production systems consuming primarily fuels with a high level of greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions in residential and tertiary buildings.

The threshold of 250 g of CO2-eq/kWh NCV established in the draft Decree, beyond which equipment must no longer be installed, mainly concerns fuel oil and coal installations.

The entry into force of this measure is scheduled for July 2021 for new buildings and 2022 for existing buildings. It will concern both buildings for residential use and buildings for professional use.

9. The National Low-Carbon Strategy sets out the objective for reducing GHG emissions from the building sector by 87 % by 2050 (compared to 2012), a sector which alone is responsible for one quarter of France’s GHG emissions. Energy consumption for heating existing buildings is the sector’s greatest source of GHG emission reductions.

In this context, on 14 November 2018, the government undertook to end fuel oil domestic heating within 10 years. The objectives for reducing greenhouse gas emissions involve radically improving the energy performance of buildings and accelerating the renovation thereof. Pursuing these objectives also makes it possible to reduce energy bills, in particular for the most modest households, and to create local jobs throughout the entire territory.

On 20 July 2020, the Citizens’ Convention on Climate emphasised, through its proposal SL1.2 ‘Making the replacement of fuel oil and coal boilers obligatory by 2030 in new and renovated buildings’, the need to supplement incentive mechanisms by means of a strengthened regulatory framework.
