Hauts-de-France Pass Renovation Hauts-de-France Pass Renovation

Hauts-de-France Pass Renovation is a public service for technical and financial assistance for renovation, created by the French region “Hauts-de-France” through the regional Public Service for Energy Efficiency. It is implemented in 12 territories or communities of the region. Hauts-de-France Pass Renovation is the first public operator to implement a third-financing mechanism for energy renovation for homeowners (individual or collective properties). It provides upfront financing for undertaking renovation work (43 000€ on average) that will be repaid by beneficiaries (in whole or partly) with their energy savings. The service provides an “all-in-one” solution, with technical assistance for homeowners, from the first energy audit to post-work energy audits, together with an innovative and attractive financing model. It contributes to creating a market for energy renovation in the region and directly pays contractors to undertake the renovation work, acting as an intermediary between homeowners and companies. In turn, the selected companies must be labelled as quality contractors (state label “RGE” Reconnu Garant de l’Environnement, “acknowledged warrant of the environment”).
