RT2012 regulation for the benefit of the environment
As part of the sustainable development, the new thermal regulation of 2012 sets a primary energy consumption as an average annual reference, according to Grenelle Act II.
This regulation helps meet the comfort needs, while limiting the maximum primary energy consumption for the heating, ventilation, domestic hot water production, and lighting systems.

• elements taken into account prior to the start of the project: architectural aspects (form, compactness, orientation, and building openings layout), bioclimatic aspects (integration of solar contribution and conservation of summer comfort), technical and economic aspects.
• roofing and walls insulation, and heat loss limitation.
• use of performant materials and equipment.
• reduction in energy consumption compared to previous thermal regulations.

BBL LABEL (Low Consumption Building)
As part of sustainable development, the BBC-effinergie® label (Low Consumption Building) sets an average primary energy consumption as an average annual reference, according to the Ministerial Decree of 3 May 2007. This label helps meet the comfort needs, while limiting the maximum energy consumption of 40 to 65kWh/m2 shon/year (= net floor area/year) in Île-de-France, for the heating, cooling, ventilation, domestic hot water production, and lighting systems.

• Elements taken into account prior to the start of the project: architectural aspects (form, compactness, orientation, and building openings layout), bioclimatic aspects (integration of solar contribution and conservation of summer comfort, use of renewable energy), technical and economic aspects.
• Roofing and walls enhanced insulation, and heat loss limitation.
• Use of materials and of equipment meeting the label requirements.
• Large reduction in energy consumption compared to a conventional building.
