MaPrimeRénov, the new prime to the energy renovation of the housing is developing at a slower rate than what was planned according to the agency responsible for distributing it. In fact, it attracted far fewer than 50,000 French households. The National Housing Agency (Anah) affirmed that 47,775 applications have been submitted since the start of 2020. Since that time, the households have benefited of the first aid for everyone work completed.
It should be noted that the bonus in question was restored to replace the old tax credit system, in order to attract households.

According to the Marketing Director of Cofidis, Mr. Mathieu Escarpit, French households realize their desires of realize of the renovations despite the economic crisis and the lockdown.
In terms of budget, the amount envisaged for the works is estimated at 9,550 euros. It should be noted that this price varies in function the social categories. Retirees will benefit around 9,480 euros. Intermediate people will have 10,100 euros. Young people aged 18 to 24, for their part, will only benefit from 6,400 euros. Still, some of them will only allocate 1,000 euros. THE lack of budget is the main pitfall at the CSP according to 1/3 of the French population according to Cofidis. In order to finance their works, they put money aside, while some (including the youngest) go resort at credit.
