The CEE (Certificats d'Economies d'Energie) system requires energy suppliers to fund renovation works. This creates a market where homeowners receive bonuses — often 2,000-5,000 EUR — for qualifying energy efficiency improvements. Unlike MaPrimeRenov', CEE amounts are not income-dependent: everyone gets the same rate. The system operates through 'obligated parties' (energy companies) who must prove they've helped reduce energy consumption.
Typically 10-20 EUR/m2 for insulation works. A 100m2 roof insulation project can receive 1,000-2,000 EUR in CEE bonuses. Heat pump installations receive 2,500-4,000 EUR depending on the technology.
Type: GRANT · Provider: Energy suppliers (EDF, Engie, TotalEnergies)
Energy suppliers (EDF, Engie, TotalEnergies, etc.) pay CEE bonuses. They are legally required to finance energy savings. You can shop around — different suppliers offer different CEE amounts for the same work.
Yes, critically. You must register your CEE application BEFORE signing the contractor quote. If you sign first, you lose eligibility. Our API helps you calculate the expected CEE amount before you commit.
