With the building sector accounting for 45% of final energy consumption in France, limiting carbon emissions in order to reduce our impact on the climate has become a common imperative.
The trajectory to be followed was specified by the tertiary sector decree, which came into force in 2019 and imposes a reduction in consumption of 40% by 2030 (then -50% in 2040 and -60% in 2050), as well as by the BACS decree published in 2020. The latter requires all non-residential tertiary buildings with a heating or air-conditioning system rated over 70 kW to install a building automation and control system by January 2025.
Rethinking building operation is essential if we are to achieve these ambitious energy performance targets.
This is where energy managers come in.

- The energy manager coordinates the relationship between the lessor and the lessee and helps them draw up the environmental appendix, which is mandatory in leases for retail premises and offices of over 2,000 square meters, enabling effective communication of the building's energy and environmental performance between the various stakeholders (energy, waste, water);
- It draws up an assessment of the building's performance, analyzes any malfunctions and proposes multi-year work plans (PPA) in line with regulatory requirements.
- It implements the most appropriate energy management system, including automated data collection tools. This real-time monitoring of consumption helps to avoid any drift and, combined with a building management system (BMS), enables equipment to be controlled in line with site usage. Connected sensors, for example, measure air or water temperature, quality or humidity levels in real time, helping to ensure the well-being of occupants;
- Thanks to its vision of the energy savings potential of each building, it can establish an asset strategy by defining an energy and/or carbon master plan prioritizing the actions to be implemented;
- It consolidates improvement and compliance plans;
- It guides the various stakeholders through the necessary changes.
- The energy manager oversees the building's energy performance on a day-to-day basis and continuously improves it;
- He supervises the energy management provided by the maintenance teams;
- It tracks down waste and identifies energy improvement levers.
/ Sinteo expertise /
Sinteo has been providing building expertise since 2008, and is responsible for the energy management of 20 million square meters. We have developed operational partnerships with renowned publishers of energy monitoring platforms such as Energisme, Netseenergy and Deepki, enabling us to adapt to every situation.
Our many references include the operational management of the Allianz Group's 2°C trajectory and its response to the tertiary sector decree (800,000 m2 spread over 124 assets), as well as the deployment of a pragmatic metering and remote reading system for Primonial Reim's buildings (700,000 m2 on 50 monitored sites), which identified a potential energy savings of 10 to 20% per site.
