  1. Midterm review of the use ofstructural funds for energyefficiency in existing housing in France Carine Puyol March-23, 2011

  2. L’Union Sociale pour l’habitat • 4.2 millions of social housing dwellings in France • 10 millions of inhabitants housed Our commitment: • 800 000 households will benefit from energy retrofit for their home by 2020

  3. ERDF allocation in French regions (without DOM)

  4. March 2011: 82.5% of ERDF funds allocated in 22 months • 9 regions have spent all ERDF to Energy efficiency to housing • 4 have decided to increase ERDF amount to energy efficiency for housing in 4% limitation • 2 have have asked to increase ERDF for EE amount beyond the 4% limitation at regional level

  5. How many Households? March 2011: 44,569 dwellings for low-income households retrofited with the contribution of ERDF (accepted or under approval process) July 2011: 63,000 dwellings will be supported by ERDF Average ERDF support: 3452euros per dwelling

  6. Leverage effect of ERDF FEDER Eco-loan National subsidies local subsidies

  7. Leverage effect of ERDF • Criteria of performance: the better the energy performance improvement is, the higher the ERDF co-financing rate is 

  8. ERDF impact

  9. Step change in energy performance

  10. Significant savings per Households • Energy savings per year per households(*): • 1170 euros per year or 98 euros per month • Based on local experience: energy retrofiting means 40% of energy saving (*) Theoretical savings based on an estimated energy cost of 7,24 euros/kwh

  11. Potentialof 15,000 jobs Total investments generated with ERDF support in 15 regions (out of 22) = 570 millions d’euros =10 317 jobs created or maintained = 687 jobs per regions i.e., a potential of 15 000 jobs for the 22 regions (excl. DOM) • Local jobs: mainly SMEs, jobs that can’t be delocalized • 1MM d’euros investi dans la rénovation de logement= 18.2 emploi (source: FFB)

  12. Success Model: partnership - Vertical Partnership: From European institutions down to local organisations. • Partnership at european, national and local level. • Continuous flow of information/feedback/success stories • Integration into national and regional environmental strategies

  13. Success Model: partnership - Horizontal Partnership National level: work with the French Administration on the conditions of implementation of the ERDF measure in regions. At the local level: Regional Associations Hlm with their partners work on • Diagnosis and evaluation of needs at regional level • the definition of ERDF eligibility criterion, • Flexibility in the type of ERDF forms of interventions (allocation/ financial tool) • Accompanying measures: support to social housing organization • Capitalisation and monitoring

  14. Recommandations • Idenfication of the needs to build energy strategy at regional level: end of 4% limitation • Mobilization of all partners (Institutional, professional and financial): EC and members state should encourage implementation of partnership • Flexibility in the type of ERDF forms of interventions (allocation/ financial tool) • Administrative simplification
