Introduced by the Climate and Resilience Act to accelerate the energy renovation of apartment buildings, the multi-year work plan project (PPPT) aims to predict, anticipate and plan the work to be undertaken in the common areas of co-ownerships over 15 years old. What does this report contain? In what context is it mandatory and by what deadline? Who is responsible for carrying it out? We answer all your questions about the PPPT.
What is PPPT?
Provided for by the Climate and Resilience Act to aim for carbon neutrality, the draft multi-year work plan (PPPT) is a report presenting a list of collective works to be undertaken over a period of 10 years within a co-ownership, depending on its condition. Addressing only buildings intended for total or partial residential use, it may give rise, when necessary, to the implementation of a multi-year work plan (PPT).
The PPPT has multiple objectives: it aims to anticipate and plan the work to be undertaken in the common areas, while providing visibility on the expenses that will be associated with it thanks to the budget estimate it contains. It is also a question of guaranteeing the health and safety of the occupants, but also of planning energy savings as well as a reduction in greenhouse gas emissions.
The PPPT must also indicate the level of performance expected following the planned work, the order of priority of the projects to be undertaken, as well as a proposed schedule for the next ten years. It must be updated every ten years, in order to ensure the safeguarding of the building and its proper maintenance.
Co-ownerships affected by the PPPT in 2024
Newly built properties are not affected by the multi-year work plan project. It is only at the end of a period of 15 years from the date of receipt of the building that the condominium association is required to set up a PPPT.
The implementation of a PPT project has been mandatory since January 1, 2023 for co-ownerships of more than 200 lots, and since January 1, 2024 for those comprising between 50 and 200 lots. This obligation will extend to co-ownerships of less than 51 lots from January 1, 2025, unless there is an exemption linked to the DTG.
In the absence of a PPPT being set up by the trustee, the co-owners are exposed to sanctions. Indeed, your town hall can demand its presentation if it considers that your co-ownership is too degraded. If you have initiated a PPPT at that time, it will be able to force the execution of a PPT on certain actions or on all the work planned for the next ten years. If the PPPT is completely non-existent, the administration will be able to force the completion of studies prior to its implementation.
Sometimes perceived as restrictive, the PPPT is nevertheless an excellent way to anticipate the work to be carried out in your co-ownership. When you are ready to take action, whether to avoid rental bans concerning thermal sieves, or to reduce your energy costs, you will only have to choose from the list of works envisaged in the PPPT.
