This aid scheme was created by Law Besson of 1990 and attached to the Department of the Rhône in 2005. It can fall into several aspects: grants or loans to access housing, surety and guarantee or financial assistance to fill debts and various unpaid debts. Owners of occupants, tenants and sub-lessees can benefit under the conditions of resource after completing a complete dossier with the assistance of a social correspondent (e. g. social assistant). This file is available from the Maison du Rhône or the General Council. The department places an important place on housing for all. That is why in 2010 the budget allocated to this aid was around EUR 5.9 million, of which EUR 1.5 million was earmarked for access to housing. 2 000 grants and 2 500 guarantees were granted in the same year.

A new form of financial assistance for new energy was introduced in 2008 by the Rhône-Alpes region. It consists of a flat-rate cheque to settle part of the facility for the installation of renewable energy equipment. It is enough to be an owner and to request a file by telephone or Internet, and then return it to the address indicated. If accepted, you will receive a-day cheque, valid for one year. The work will only begin with an approved installer "Enerplan", NF 303.5 or EN 12.809. As an indication, the cheque is 300 € for an individual solar water heater and € 1 000 for a combined solar system or for a wood boiler. So more reason to avoid saving money!

Lyon is a sustainable and committed city, and not just because its history dates back to antiquity. Lyon City Council, with its executive under the green banner, is putting this essential theme at the heart of its actions, with an energy sobriety plan for example, or a "Committed to Lyon" label in a local dynamic promoting the social and solidarity economy. Dematerialized procedures available online. Also worth keeping an eye on, the Lyon City Hall app, which simplifies your life in the city: living environment, culture, children and education, solidarity, transport, tourism... The city is taking on a more human dimension, leaving room for nature with, for example, the creation of urban orchards.
