Retrofitting 53 low income homes for energy efficiency and establishment of the La Montagnette energy laboratory in Ugine (73) OPH D'Ugine Rhône-Alpes € 318 000 ERDF 31 2012 This energy-efficient retrofitting operation is an experimental scheme making it possible to test various energy-efficient retrofitting ideas on the same site, for detached homes, with a view to reaching BBC level (the BBC Effinergie Renovation label). It is also part of a larger energy laboratory project the purpose of which is to test performance and monitoring indicators. In addition to its coherence with energy efficiency and sustainable government objectives, the project also plays an evaluation role.

In particular, we should mention a high level of interest in energy efficiency projects (accounting for more than 2,100 projects), with solar energy being strongly represented (more than 1,700 projects). On average, more than 750 projects per year are performed with the support of the European Union via ERDF, with an average total per project of €600,000 (total cost) of which 130,000 is funded by ERDF. In metropolitan France, 4,670 projects were programmed in the energy field. Most of these projects concerned energy efficiency (2,069 projects). In the outermost regions, 228 projects were supported, most of which concerned renewable energy and particularly solar power (146 projects). The percentage of the ERDF budgetary envelope devoted to the «energy» theme totalled 11% for the «competitiveness» objective, at €595 million, and 2% for the «convergence» objective with a total of €37.9 million invested. In the outermost regions, just over €18 million were programmed for solar energy projects. Similarly, €15.5 million were devoted to energy efficiency projects.
