DPE MENTION HAUTS-DE-FRANCE

The DPE in Hauts-de-France is a result which makes it possible to see the energy efficiency of a property by an estimate or a report of its energy consumption and its rate of greenhouse gas emissions.

The average of the DPE in Hauts-de-France

In Hauts-de-France, the average energy performance diagnosis is 262 kWhEP / m².year.

What properties are affected?

The DPE must be carried out in all dwellings for residential or tertiary use, except those intended to be occupied for less than four months of the year.

Who orders the DPE?

It is the owner of the home or the lessor to carry out the DPE. The DPE will be carried out before the accommodation is put up for sale or rental and will be given to the purchaser or to the tenant.

Only a certified diagnostician can perform the Energy Performance diagnostic. There are two levels of certification:

1. Certification without mention, known as energy performance diagnostic (DPE), for carrying out energy performance diagnostics (DPE) of individual dwellings and lots in buildings used primarily as residential buildings

2. certification with mention (DPE Mention Lille), known as "energy performance diagnosis for all types of buildings", for carrying out energy performance diagnoses in buildings or buildings for main use other than residential

In addition to this, you need to know more about it.

What is the DPE used for?
For :
Better understand the consumption and emissions of the existing fleet.
Inform and educate operators and users on economic and environmental issues
- classify consumption and CO2 emissions on a scale from A to G,
- advise on the behaviors to adopt - recommend improvement work.
Allow consumers to compare the energy performance of buildings with each other.

In addition to this, you need to know more about it.

Important remarks on calculations by simulations:

Are there any differences between consumption obtained by simulation and invoices?
The main reasons:
1. Differences in weather conditions between the billing year (s) taken into account and the reference for the simulation which is an average over 30 years,
2. The actual conditions of energy use that differ from the standardized scenario based on the simulation calculation: behavior, number of occupants, lifestyles, etc.
The notion of energy performance given by considering a standardized use is fundamental.

How long is the DPE valid for?

The legal validity of a DPE is 10 years

When do we learn about the DPE?

The energy performance diagnosis is an integral part of the real estate technical file. The latter is annexed:

• To the promise to sell or, failing that, to the deed of sale, in the event of the transaction.

• or lease, in case of rental.

What are the penalties in the event of absence of the DPE diagnosis?

For the seller

There is no specific sanction for the seller who does not respect his obligation to inform. However, it can lead to common law sanctions:

• on the civil level, the absence of DPE can be considered as fraud. The applicable sanction is the nullity of the deed of sale or the reduction in the amount of the transaction;

• from a criminal standpoint, if the advertisement contains information on the DPE based on false indications or likely to mislead the prospective buyer, the fraud department of the Directorate-General for Competition, Consumer Affairs and Law Enforcement fraud (DGCCRF) can impose a fine of € 37,500 on the seller and a 2-year prison sentence.

For the lessor

There is no specific sanction for the lessor who does not respect his obligation to inform. However, it can lead to common law sanctions:

• on the civil level, the absence of DPE can be considered as fraud. The applicable sanction is the nullity of the lease or the reduction in the amount of the rent;

• at the criminal level, if the advertisement contains information on the DPE diagnosis based on false indications or likely to mislead the candidate tenant, the fraud department of the Directorate-General for Competition, Consumer Affairs and repression of fraud (DGCCRF) can impose a fine of € 37,500 on the seller and a sentence of 2 years in prison.

For the diagnostician

The technician who does not meet his obligation to transmit the DPE to Ademe may be fined 5th class, i.e. 1,500 €.

In the event of disagreement on the content of the DPE, the prospective buyer or tenant can also contact the technician or the company that certified it.

What are the exceptions to ECD?

The Energy Performance Diagnosis is mandatory except for:

• unheated buildings,

• places of worship,

• historic monuments,

• individual buildings with a SHOB of less than 50 m²

• temporary constructions (use of less than 24 months).
