The RE2020: building housing
more efficient and sustainable
The 2020 Environmental Regulations at the heart of C&V Habitat projects
At C&V Habitat, we integrate the requirements of the RE2020 into each of our real estate projects in Haute-Savoie, Savoie and Pays de Gex. These regulations guide our design choices in order to offer sustainable, high-performance housing adapted to the expectations of future owners.
What is the RE2020?
The RE2020 is the regulation that governs the construction of new buildings.
Its objective is to improve the quality of housing while reducing its environmental impact. It takes into account not only energy consumption, but also carbon emissions generated throughout the life cycle of the building.
This evolution marks a new stage in new construction by favouring more responsible materials, better insulation and ever more efficient equipment.
Three major objectives
Reduce energy consumption
Homes must limit their need for heating, air conditioning and lighting thanks to optimised design and high-performance insulation.
This approach reduces energy consumption while improving occupant comfort.
Improving comfort in summer
With the evolution of the climate, episodes of high heat are more frequent.
The RE2020 therefore requires a design that allows a pleasant temperature to be maintained inside homes without systematically resorting to air conditioning.
The orientation of the building, insulation, sun protection and natural ventilation are all part of this objective.
Reducing the carbon footprint
The regulations encourage the use of more environmentally friendly materials and the reduction of greenhouse gas emissions related to construction.
This approach favours innovative construction solutions and bio-based materials where relevant.
What are the advantages for future owners?
This performance also makes it possible to better control energy expenditure throughout the life of the home.
The RE202 at C&V Habitat
Our teams work with architects, design offices and specialist companies to develop housing that fully meets the requirements of current regulations.
Depending on the project, we favour high-performance materials and develop timber frame constructions, recognised for their environmental qualities and excellent thermal comfort.
Our objective is simple: to offer sustainable housing, capable of meeting the expectations of current and future generations.
Accommodation designed for your comfort
We pay particular attention to:
- the quality of the insulation;
- natural light;
- the orientation of housing;
- the quality of the materials;
- the performance of the equipment.
These choices make it possible to create comfortable homes on a daily basis, while limiting energy consumption.
Added value for your investment
Buying a home that complies with the RE2020 is also a long-term investment.
Energy performance has become an essential criterion for buyers and investors alike. A recent home generally benefits from a better valuation on the real estate market and meets current environmental requirements.
By choosing a new development by C&V Habitat, you are investing in a property designed to last and comply with the standards in force for many years.
Building the future in Haute-Savoie, Savoie and Pays de Gex
Based in Haute-Savoie, C&V Habitat develops real estate programs throughout Haute-Savoie, Savoie and Pays de Gex.
Our knowledge of the territory allows us to design projects adapted to their environment, reconciling architectural quality, energy performance and landscape integration.
Each achievement reflects our desire to build responsible, comfortable and sustainable housing.
