MaPrimeRénov' 2026: income caps, amounts and routes

What changed between 2025 and 2026

The scheme has been suspended several times. Note these dates, all published by France Rénov’:

Income caps by colour band

The figure used is the revenu fiscal de référence (reference taxable income) for year N-1 (2025 for an application in 2026) of all occupants. If the home is let, it is the landlord’s income that counts (service-public.gouv.fr).

Major renovation (supported route)

Conditions. The home must be rated E, F or G before works and have been built at least 15 years ago. An owner-occupier undertakes to live there for 3 years as their main residence; a landlord, to let it for 6 years. An energy audit before and after works is required. The works must deliver a gain of at least 2 classes and include at least 2 insulation measures (walls, lower floors, roof, windows and doors), each covering at least 25% of the home. Any second stage must reach class C (for a home starting at F or G) or B (for a home starting at E).

Amount.

Example: a “blue” household gaining 3 classes for €40,000 excl. VAT of works can receive 80% × 40,000 = €32,000.

Compulsory support. After the France Rénov’ appointment, a Mon Accompagnateur Rénov’ (accredited renovation adviser) oversees the project. Their service is covered at 100% (blue), 80% (yellow), 40% (purple) or 20% (pink), up to €2,000 (€4,000 for substandard housing or a very low-income household in fuel poverty).

Single-measure route: the heat pump

In mainland France, “pink” households are no longer eligible for the single-measure route; only blue, yellow and purple households are. The home must be at least 15 years old, reduced to 2 years for a heat pump or connection to a heat network.

The works must be carried out by an RGE (reconnu garant de l’environnement, certified energy-efficiency) professional and may only start after the Anah’s acknowledgement of receipt. They must be completed within 2 years of the decision (1 year if an advance was paid). A new application is possible within 5 years for the same home if the first grant has been paid and the two together do not exceed €20,000 in total. The grant can be combined with the éco-PTZ (interest-free eco-loan), CEE (energy-saving certificates) and local grants; VAT is at 5.5%.

Which professional to consult

Before buying a home rated E, F or G, the diagnostiqueur (property surveyor) gives you the DPE and, for a house, the energy audit that serve as the starting point for the calculation. The courtier en crédit (mortgage broker) can arrange financing for the remaining cost (éco-PTZ, works loan). The agent immobilier (estate agent) and the notaire help you factor the cost of works into your offer and plan the compromis that allows you to apply before the sale.
