Thermal colanders: “The entry into force of the energy audit postponed to April 1, 2023”, announces Minister Olivier Klein

It was to come into force on January 1, 2022. Then had been postponed to September 1, 2022. Finally it will be… April 1, 2023. Olivier Klein, Minister Delegate in charge of the City and Housing, confirms the new postponement of the obligation to carry out an energy audit next spring. Imposed on owners in the event of the sale of a house or a single-ownership building, its purpose is to inform the buyer of the work to be carried out, so that his property is no longer a “thermal sieve” (in the diagnosis energy performance class F or G). A “technical report”, justifies the minister, while professionals have not been able to be sufficiently trained in this device so far.
