National report on the regulatory system of environmental and energy policies: France

An extract from Deliverable 3.2 “National reports on the regulatory system of environmental and energy policies”

The main objective of this report is to provide insights on the national regulatory and institutional system of Energy and Environmental Policies (EEPs) in France. The analysis specifically focuses on housing retrofitting (section 4), nature-based solutions (section 5), and densification policies (section 6), framed within the broader context of national climate change mitigation and adaptation policies (introductory section). The concluding section revolves around main changes in EEPs in France and outlines hypotheses on the relations and trade-offs between these policies and the housing inequalities that are further discussed in another report on the housing system from a multi-level perspective in France (D4.2).
