CNP Assurances signs the charter on the energy efficiency of public and private tertiary buildings


CNP Assurances signed today the charter on the energy efficiency of public and private tertiary buildings.


Launched in October 2013 by the Sustainable Building Plan (Plan Bâtiment Durable) and supported by the public authorities, the charter on the energy efficiency of public and private tertiary buildings organises a voluntary and coordinated movement for energy renovation of tertiary stock.


Committed since 2012 to low fossil fuel consumption, CNP Assurances, through the signing of this charter, intends to become more involved in the sustainable building sector and to strengthen its environmental commitment.


At the end of 2015, the certified tertiary real estate portfolio of CNP Assurances represents €2,258 M of assets, i.e. 25% of the total tertiary real estate portfolio held directly or in a 'club deal', estimated at €9,010 M of assets.


This dynamic, promoting the energy efficiency of public and private tertiary buildings, is bolstered by article 17 of the law on energy transition for green growth which extends the energy renovation obligation of the tertiary sector by ten-year periods from 2020 to 2050 with an increased performance level to be achieved every decade. The objective aims to halve the final energy consumption in 2050 compared to 2012 and to bring the share of renewable energies to 32% in 2030.


The charter is open for signature by all public and private stakeholders from the tertiary sector who wish to commit to the energy improvement of their stock. It is also open to collective organisations that gather together the public and private tertiary stock stakeholders: associations, federations that promote the interests of a business or a particular segment of the sector.


'By signing this charter, CNP Assurances is proud to affirm its commitment to the energy efficiency of buildings and thus contribute to the energy transition for green growth', stresses Mikaël Cohen, Investment Director of CNP Assurances.

'By signing this charter today, CNP Assurances demonstrates its lasting commitment to the environment and its willingness to participate in the renewal of energy of its tertiary stock,' said Philippe Pelletier, Chairman of Plan Bâtiment Durable.
