Energy and climate ratings
Among 19,726 valid DPEs of homes (excluding generated DPEs) in Mulhouse, rating D is the most common; 31% reach ratings A to C.
If the homes with a DPE in Mulhouse had the same mix of building age and type (house, flat) as mainland France, the F+G share would be 8.7% (+0.8 pt versus the observed figure).
By floor area, the F+G share among homes with a DPE in Mulhouse ranges from 6.3% (70-99 m²) to 11% (25-39 m²).
For 25% of homes with a DPE in Mulhouse 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).
11% of homes with a DPE in Mulhouse 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 (2,196 homes; 12% in mainland France). For them, a small measurement gap or a minor work can move the letter.

G, F and E ratings: the decent-housing timetable
362 homes with a DPE (excluding generated DPEs) in Mulhouse are rated G, i.e. 1.8% of homes with a DPE (3.5% 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).
1,192 homes with a DPE (excluding generated DPEs) in Mulhouse are rated F, i.e. 6.0% of homes with a DPE (7.2% 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).
4,350 homes with a DPE (excluding generated DPEs) in Mulhouse are rated E, i.e. 22% 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 1,553 F- or G-rated homes with a DPE (excluding generated DPEs) in Mulhouse whose DPE is still valid on that date, whose published class is reproduced and whose scale could be read, 16% 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.

Estimated consumption and cost
The median cost estimated by the DPE in Mulhouse is €1,105 a year for a flat (202 kWh of primary energy per m²) and €1,955 for a house (214 kWh/m²). Per unit of floor area, the median cost of a flat is €19 per m² a year (€17 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.
