Get an energy audit of your property

Unlike a standard CECB® audit, which only includes an energy assessment of your property, a CECB® Plus audit includes up to five personalized recommendations to optimize your renovation project.

Thanks to BCV, you can get a discount of CHF 250 on your CECB® Plus audit in addition to the cantonal subsidy. To take advantage of our offer, simply choose an approved auditor on the CECB® website, ask for a quote, and have the audit carried out.

Check out our guide to energy-efficient renovations (in French only) to find out everything you need to know before you get started.

Get information about subsidies

Subsidies can cover up to 30% of the cost of comprehensive renovations.* They concern mainly roof and wall insulation, the installation of solar panels, and the replacement of heating systems. These subsidies are part of the federal and cantonal buildings program, which promotes sustainable solutions to reduce energy use and CO2 emissions.

Carry out the renovations

Once you have the building permit or authorization for renovation work and your subsidies have been approved, you can hire a general contractor and start the work. When it’s completed, you will need to inform the Vaud Environmental Board (Direction générale de l’environnement, or DGE) by submitting the necessary form (Avis d’achèvement). This final step makes the end of the project official and means your subsidies can be paid.

Your architect or general contractor can help you submit this form.

Important: Do not start the renovation work before receiving written confirmation that your subsidies have been approved. Work that has already started, or is already finished, is not eligible for subsidies.
