Documentation for CAP RENOV+, an energy simulation and energy audit software. The guides cover technical aspects of energy audits, including energy classes, thermal regulations (RT 1974), habitable surface (SHAB), and financial aid such as MaPrimeRénov' and Éco-PTZ, as well as user guides for the simulation tool.

What's inside CAP RENOV+

  1. Overview of French Thermal Regulations (RT) from 1974 to RE2020

    Thermal Regulations (Réglementations Thermiques - RT) are a set of standards implemented in France to improve the energy performance of buildings. They have evolved from the first regulation in 1974 to the current RE2020 (Environmental Regulation 2020), which applies to new constructions and focuses on both energy performance and global environmental impact.

  2. Overview of CAP RENOV+ energy simulation software

    CAP RENOV+ is a comprehensive tool designed for artisans, architects, and design offices to simulate a building's energy performance and plan renovation projects. It enables users to perform regulatory energy audits or free thermal simulations, design guided renovation scenarios with integrated MaPrimeRénov’ aid estimates, and verify scenario eligibility to generate summaries for MAR files.

  3. Overview of CAP RENOV+ energy simulation software

    CAP RENOV+ is a comprehensive tool designed for artisans, architects, and engineering firms to simulate housing energy performance and plan renovation projects. It enables users to perform regulatory energy audits or free thermal simulations, design guided renovation scenarios, estimate MaPrimeRénov’ subsidies, and verify scenario eligibility to generate summaries for MAR files.

  4. Overview of CAP RENOV+ energy simulation software

    CAP RENOV+ is a comprehensive tool designed for artisans, architects, and engineering firms to simulate the energy performance of housing and plan renovation projects. It enables users to perform regulatory energy audits or free thermal simulations, design guided renovation scenarios, estimate MaPrimeRénov’ subsidies, and verify scenario eligibility to generate summaries for MAR dossiers.

  5. Use CAP RENOV+ for energy simulation and audit

    CAP RENOV+ is a tool designed for artisans, architects, and design offices to simulate housing energy performance and plan renovation projects. It enables users to:

    1. Perform regulatory energy audits or free thermal simulations.
    2. Design guided renovation scenarios and estimate MaPrimeRénov’ financial aid.
    3. Verify scenario eligibility and generate summaries for MAR (MaPrimeRénov’) files.
    Visit https://cap-renov.fr/ to access the tool.

  6. Understand the role of the cadastral plot in energy audits

    A 'parcelle cadastrale' is a unique land unit registered in the French public land registry (cadastre). In the context of an energy audit, the cadastral plot number is used for:

    • Unique Identification: Linking the audit to a specific property to ensure data accuracy.
    • Administrative Compliance: Ensuring the audit meets legal requirements for tax declarations or renovation grant applications (e.g., MaPrimeRénov’).
    • Tracking Improvements: Monitoring the property's energy performance evolution and compliance with standards during renovation works.

  8. Understand how energy labels are calculated

    Energy labels are determined by a 'double threshold' system. To achieve a specific letter grade, a property must meet thresholds for both energy consumption (measured in kWh/m².year) and carbon emissions (measured in kgeq.CO2/m².year). If a property has low energy consumption but high carbon emissions, it will receive a poor energy label.

  9. Use CAP RENOV+ for energy audits and renovation simulations

    CAP RENOV+ is a simulation and energy audit software designed for artisans, architects, and engineering firms. It enables users to:

    1. Perform regulatory-compliant energy audits or independent thermal simulations.
    2. Design guided renovation work scenarios and estimate MaPrimeRénov’ subsidies.
    3. Verify scenario eligibility and generate summaries for MAR (MaPrimeRénov’) dossiers.

  12. Understand Thermal Calculation Engines

    A thermal calculation engine is an algorithm or software that simulates a building's thermal behavior based on construction characteristics, equipment, and climate. Regulatory engines are used to generate the DPE (Energy Performance Certificate) or verify RE2020 compliance.
