Vaud canton increases funding for energy-efficient building renovations

Vaud canton will allocate 74 million francs to encourage energy-efficient renovations in 2026. This funding, a nearly 22% increase from the previous year, includes existing subsidies and a new assistance program for owners and tenants. The funds are a joint effort between the canton and the Confederation. The building sector accounts for a quarter of Switzerland's CO2 emissions, making these renovations crucial for energy transition and carbon neutrality goals.
