The Brussels-Capital Region has simplified the procedure for applying for grants over the past few years. In 2021, there were three separate grant programs in place: the Energy Grant, the Residential Environment Renovation Grant, and the Facade Beautification Grant. Starting in 2022, only one integrated system will be used, known as the RENOLUTION grants. Although the program has been in place for some time, not all building managers are aware of it. That’s a shame, because the total grant can amount to as much as 90% of the total cost.

A striking feature of the Renolution premiums is the simplification of the administrative procedure. By merging several premiums into one system, the path to financial support for sustainable renovations is significantly simplified. Building owners and managers can now submit their applications with greater ease and clarity.

The Renolution premium is a powerful initiative of the Brussels Capital Region aimed at building owners and building managers in Brussels. Whether you are an apartment owner, syndic of a residential complex or a real estate professional, the Renolution premium offers a valuable incentive for those striving for sustainable renovations and energy efficiency in their property portfolio. Premiums are only available for work carried out by professionals and for buildings older than 10 years.
The Renolution premium can support various renovation works, check the Renolution website for an overview. Premiums E and F relate specifically to the renovation of roofs and facades. If you want to make the building more energy efficient, this is of course where the most profit can be made by insulating it better. It also involves the renewal of roofing, facade repair and other energy-efficient measures. By covering a wide range of works, the premium provides flexibility for building owners to develop customized renovation plans that fit the specific needs of their properties.

A particularly interesting aspect of Renolution premiums is the financial benefit that building owners can receive. According to Renolution's policy, lower-income individuals can receive premiums of up to 50% to cover renovation costs on their homes. In reality, we see that these premiums can reach 90% of the total renovation cost. This significant financial support is designed to make sustainable renovations even more accessible and attractive to building owners and managers.
In a specific example with one of our clients, the theoretical premium even exceeded the total cost of the roof renovation. The authority did make the disclosure that the premiums could be up to 90% of the cost. Wondering how much premium you will receive for the roof renovation of your building or residence? Contact us.
The benefits of roof renovations extend beyond the financial aspects. When renovating a roof, residents benefit not only from lower heating costs due to improved insulation, but also from an overall more comfortable living environment. In addition, the value of the homes in the building increases, which has a positive effect on the property as a whole. Read more about the benefits of energy-efficient buildings and the role that syndicates and VMEs play in the transition to sustainability in this post.
The Brussels Region is taking drastic measures to renovate the building stock in our capital at a rapid pace. Just about every building owner can claim financial support to renovate his or her building via the Renolution premium. Provided the building is older than 10 years and the work is carried out by a professional. A good thing and above all necessary to meet the strict climate objectives. As pioneers of sustainable construction, we can only applaud this. The scope of works eligible for a premium is also very broad. We only wonder how long the Brussels Capital Region will be able to sustain these efforts from a budgetary point of view. Because year after year, the budgets provided for are exceeded. If you are planning a renovation in the next few years, we do not advise you to wait long.
