As part of France's comprehensive energy transition program, the French government is making a number of grants available to private individuals. These include MaPrimeRénov' and reduced VAT for eligible work. It is also possible to claim a CEE bonus through energy suppliers. However, to qualify for this energy bonus, you need to meet a number of conditions, the most important of which is to use an RGE (Reconnu Garant de l'Environnement) certified craftsman.
Why choose an RGE professional to obtain your CEE bonus?
The link between RGE and CEE is extremely close, and this is explained by the fact that the State controls the awarding of this label. Obtaining the "Reconnu Garant de l'Environnement" (RGE) label means that the professional has trained himself and his teams in best practices.
Choosing an RGE craftsman therefore ensures you open up the rights to energy bonuses while guaranteeing you quality work.

How to identify RGE-labeled craftsmen?
You can identify RGE-labeled craftsmen in two ways. Firstly, they have a logo marked with the RGE acronym corresponding to their specialization.
Secondly, all RGE professionals are registered and classified by the France Rénov' system put online by the French government. You can consult the list of RGE professionals on their website.
