In this article, we will delve into the specific aspects of the Décret Tertiaire for industrial companies, and provide you with the essential information to understand and meet this regulatory obligation.
Who is subjected to the Décret Tertiaire ?
The Décret Tertiaire mainly applies to tertiary-use buildings, but it can also affect industrial companies who own administrative buildings, offices, or commercial premises. The buildings concerned by the Décret Tertiaire are as follows :
- Tertiary premises of more than 1000 m² of surface area.
- Partially tertiary premises of more than 1000 m² of tertiary surface area, only on this part.
- Sets of buildings on the same site, hosting a cumulative surface area of tertiary activity of more than 1000 m². A site is equivalent to a set of buildings sharing a common energy delivery point (ENEDIS or GRDF for example).
