Key facts

  • 13% of homes with a DPE in Dijon are on district heating (4.1% in mainland France).
  • 27% of homes with a DPE in Dijon have shared (collective) heating (15% in mainland France).
  • Natural gas heats 44% of homes with a DPE in Dijon, against 36% in mainland France.
  • 3.0% of homes with a DPE in Dijon report air conditioning, against 9.2% in mainland France.

Energy and climate ratings

Among 44,325 valid DPEs of homes (excluding generated DPEs) in Dijon, rating D is the most common; 37% reach ratings A to C.

If the homes with a DPE in Dijon had the same mix of building age and type (house, flat) as mainland France, the F+G share would be 13% (+1.9 pt versus the observed figure).

Small homes are the most often poorly rated in Dijon: 14% of assessed homes under 25 m² are rated F or G, against 8.7% for those of 70-99 m².

For 15% of homes with a DPE in Dijon whose published class is reproduced, the climate rating (greenhouse-gas emissions) sets the DPE class: the final rating is the worse of the two (18% in mainland France).

13% of homes with a DPE in Dijon whose published class is reproduced would change rating with 5 kWh/m²/year of consumption, or 1 kg CO₂/m²/year of emissions, more or less: they sit on a class boundary (5,559 homes; 12% in mainland France). For them, a small measurement gap or a minor work can move the letter.

DPEs generated from the building’s DPE

31% of valid DPEs (19,623) — against 29% in the département and 29% in mainland France — were produced from the building's DPE: their rating was not measured for the flat itself. They are shown separately: their ratings are not mixed into the figures above.

G, F and E ratings: the decent-housing timetable

1,669 homes with a DPE (excluding generated DPEs) in Dijon are rated G, i.e. 3.8% of homes with a DPE (5.1% in the département, 4.4% in mainland France). Since 1 January 2025, a G-rated home no longer meets the energy performance level of decent housing (Law 89-462, s. 6).

3,275 homes with a DPE (excluding generated DPEs) in Dijon are rated F, i.e. 7.4% of homes with a DPE (8.2% in the département, 7.2% in mainland France). From 1 January 2028, rating F will no longer meet the energy performance level of decent housing (Law 89-462, s. 6).

8,237 homes with a DPE (excluding generated DPEs) in Dijon are rated E, i.e. 19% of homes with a DPE (17% in the département, 17% in mainland France). From 1 January 2034, rating E will no longer meet the energy performance level of decent housing (Law 89-462, s. 6).

On 1 January 2027, the electricity primary-energy conversion factor drops from 1.9 to 1.7 (order of 19 August 2026). Among the 4,903 F- or G-rated homes with a DPE (excluding generated DPEs) in Dijon whose DPE is still valid on that date, whose published class is reproduced and whose scale could be read, 19% could obtain a certificate of a new rating, at least one class better, downloadable from ADEME's DPE-Audit Observatory. The original DPE remains valid until it expires.

Heating and hot water

Natural gas comes first: 44% of homes with a DPE in Dijon rely on it for heating, and 27% have shared heating.

By heating energy, the share of F- or G-rated homes in Dijon ranges from 3.4% for homes heated by district heating to 60% for those heated with heating oil; it is 10% with electricity.

In the 2022 census, INSEE counts 30% of main residences mainly heated by electricity in Dijon; among homes with a DPE, the share is 41%.

Of the 5,896 homes with a DPE in Dijon heated by a district network, 74% declare their network's identifier. The main ones: “DIJON ÉNERGIES” (2106C), 49% of connected homes (0.042 kg CO₂/kWh direct, 0.060 life-cycle); “RÉSEAU DU GRAND DIJON OUEST” (2102C), 19% of connected homes (0.084 kg CO₂/kWh direct, 0.111 life-cycle); “RÉSEAU DES GRESILLES” (2105C), 5.1% of connected homes (0.082 kg CO₂/kWh direct, 0.112 life-cycle). CO₂ contents set by the French order of 30 March 2026, applicable since 25 May 2026: an older DPE may have used other values.

Summer comfort and heat

Over the 1991-2020 normal, Dijon averages 2.1 days a year above 35 °C and 1.6 nights above 20 °C; projections for 2050 point to 6.5 and 8.8.

The DPE includes a "summer comfort" section. In Dijon, 91% of homes with a DPE fill it in; of these, 29% are rated insufficient. This rate depends on who fills in the section, so it is not compared with other cities.

Estimated consumption and cost

The median cost estimated by the DPE in Dijon is €895 a year for a flat (206 kWh of primary energy per m²) and €1,925 for a house (227 kWh/m²). Per unit of floor area, the median cost of a flat is €21 per m² a year (€19 in the département, €19 in mainland France). This cost is conventional: it assumes standard use and the energy prices in force when each DPE was issued, not a household's actual bill.

Prices and green value

Median price in Dijon over 2021-2025 sales: €2,685 per m² for a flat (15,612 sales), €3,280 for a house (2,043 sales) — DVF statistics (Etalab).

In our "DPE discount city by city" study (house sales matched to their DPE), F- or G-rated houses in Dijon sold for 4.9% less per m² than D-rated houses.

Estimated advertised rent in Dijon, charges included, all DPE ratings combined: €13.34 per m² per month for a flat (prediction interval €10.83 to €16.43), €13.08 per m² per month for a house (2025 rent map).

Co-ownerships and collective DPE

The national register of co-ownerships lists 3,960 co-ownerships in Dijon (Q3 2025 file, all construction periods), with 75,997 residential units in total: 16 have more than 200 units used as homes, offices or shops, 340 between 51 and 200, and 3,604 with 50 units or fewer. Of those with a known period, 44% were built before 1949 and 5.5% after 2010.

The collective DPE covers multi-dwelling residential buildings whose building permit application was filed before 1 January 2013, on a timetable set by the number of units (rule and references in the method). ADEME's database holds 2,170 valid building-level DPEs in Dijon, single-owner buildings included; one building may have several.

276 co-ownerships in Dijon are flagged in the register as having received an Anah grant for owners' associations, and 15 are in a priority urban-policy neighbourhood (QPV).

DPEs quarter by quarter

Frequently asked questions — Dijon

How many energy-inefficient homes are there in Dijon?

Of the 44,325 homes with a DPE (excluding generated DPEs) since 1 July 2021 whose DPE is valid on 25 August 2026, 4,944 are rated F or G (11%), including 1,669 rated G. At building age and type comparable to mainland France, the share would be 13%. These are homes with a DPE, not every home in the city.

Is district heating common in Dijon?

13% of homes with a DPE in Dijon are on district heating, against 4.1% in mainland France. In the DPE, district heating's primary energy is counted with a factor of 1, and its greenhouse-gas emissions depend on each network's own carbon content.

Why are some DPEs in Dijon generated from the building?

31% of valid DPEs in Dijon were generated from the building's DPE, without a rating measured for the flat itself. The rules allow this for flats in an already-assessed building. These DPEs are counted separately on this page: they report F and G less often in older buildings, and almost never summer comfort.

How are homes in Dijon heated?

According to their DPEs, homes in Dijon are mainly heated by natural gas (44%), electricity (41%), district heating (13%). In mainland France, electricity heats 50% of homes with a DPE and natural gas 36%.

What do DPEs in Dijon say about summer comfort?

91% of homes with a DPE in Dijon fill in the DPE's summer comfort section. Of these, 29% are rated insufficient, 50% average and 21% good. The fill-in rate varies widely: these figures describe DPEs that complete the section, not the whole city.

Comparable cities

Cities chosen for their similar size, climate, building stock or département.

Among its comparable cities (Besançon, Clermont-Ferrand, Grenoble, Limoges, Saint-Étienne and Lyon), Dijon has neither the highest nor the lowest value on any indicator; however, its share of district-heated homes (13%) is above the group median (6.3%) and its median price per m² for a flat (€2,685) is above the group median (€2,130).
