ADEME's "Mon parcours économies d'énergie" programme co-finances voluntary energy audits (NF EN 16247) for small, medium and large French enterprises to identify savings and build an energy strategy. It is complementary to the PACTE Industrie programme, which can fund an additional energy-mix study when combined with the audit.
About this grant
Mon parcours économies d'énergie is a grant programme that helps small, medium, and large enterprises finance voluntary energy audits to identify potential energy savings and establish an effective energy strategy. The energy audit is a critical first step for developing a comprehensive energy management approach. The audit identifies current energy expenditures, recommends the most efficient and cost-effective actions to improve energy management, and prioritizes these actions based on return on investment and implementation feasibility. Audits typically yield 10-20% energy savings on average and provide a solid foundation for implementing an Energy Management System (SME). The programme is complementary to the PACTE Industrie programme, which can fund an additional opportunity study on evolving the energy mix if combined with the voluntary energy audit. The audit methodology follows the NF EN 16247 version 2022 standard, and service providers must be qualified under OPQIBI 1717 or equivalent and meet strict requirements for objectivity, transparency, and impartiality.
