The tax credit for renovation still exists! There are several schemes depending on what you're doing: MaPrimeRénov' for insulation and heating systems, the EEC scheme (Energy Savings Certificates) that can give you direct grants, and there are still tax deductions for certain types of work. You really gotta check on the Anah website or the tax authority site because it changes regularly and it depends on your income, the type of work you're doing, and whether your place is your main residence!

It's complicated because it changes all the time depending on the region and type of work, but yeah, it still exists overall. What I'd do is check directly with your local council or regional authority before you get started, because there are often bonus local grants that don't get mentioned and it's free money you're leaving on the table.

What kind of work are you actually looking at? Because that really changes things.

The previous answers aren't wrong, but they're too general. The thing is, these programs still exist in 2026, but the conditions have gotten stricter. It's not just a regional thing - you need to look at your household income and the exact nature of the work. MaPrimeRénov' has become more selective than it used to be, like it's really focused on major energy renovations, not just small stuff. And CEE (Energy Savings Certificates) continue but the aid fluctuates depending on the period. So before you jump in, you need to check with Anah (National Housing Agency) - their website will tell you straight up if you're eligible and for how much.

In practice, take the time to get an energy audit or a thermal assessment done. It doesn't cost much and it'll point you toward the work that's actually a priority tax-wise. Loads of people leave money on the table because they don't know the exact conditions for their situation. Your regional office can also help you put together the application if it gets too complicated.
