In its approach(initiative) of development of the renewable energies on its heritage(holdings), the City of Besançon chose to develop the thermal solar energy for the municipal buildings(ships). Since 2010, the potential is studied resting on the measures of domestic hot water on several sites. So in 2014, the city account 10 installations of thermal solar cells: 3 day-nurseries(cribs), 3 cloakrooms(changing rooms), 1 swimming pool, 1 accommodation(housing) and 2 industrial and administrative building. All in all it is about 350 m ² of panels(signs) which were installed(settled). Average rate of cover(blanket) of the needs for hot water by renewable energy is 30 %
.
The city of possessed Besançon a park of boiler rooms foncionnant mainly in the gas, which she(it) maintains in state control. When a renewal of boiler is necessary the City study systematically the opportunity to use a renewable energy. So since 2007, 6 boilers wood were installed(settled), 5 in schools, one for the municipal swimming pool. In 2014 these installations allowed the City to reach(affect) a renewable rate of energy upper to 20 % with regard to(compared with) the consumption of enrgie finale of the heritage(holdings) of the City.

The site of Grand Besançon has a level of high period of sunshine, about 1 300 kWh / m ².an. In its approach(initiative) of development of the renewable energies on its heritage(holdings), the City of Besançon then chose to develop the potovoltaïque solar energy on its municipal buildings(ships). The first panels(signs) were installed(settled) in 2004 (345 m ² installed for a power of 43 kW). Since 2010, the photovoltaic potential was studied. Todays 5 additional installations were organized(been organized): 4 on school complexes and 1 on a day-nursery(crib), so allowing the City to have its first building(ship) in énergié be positive(insist on the positive aspects). All in all it is 1 237 m ² of surface of panels(signs) which were installed(settled), what represents a power of 164 kWc.This program started in 2005 continues in 2014

- The renovation of the unity(unit) of methanation and the cogeneration. The study which is in progress will have to propose a use of the produced biogas, as for example, the injection in the public network or of the cognération
- The improvement of the premises(places) of exploitaion with for main objective to reduce energy consumptions. A study for the setting-up(presence) of photovoltaic solar panels is planned;
- The renewal of industrial plants with also the concern(marigold) that he(it) is successful at the energy level.
The operation committed(hired) in 2013 will end in 2018.

The City of Besancon and the Municipal Center of Social action ( CCAS) set up an animation of an accommodation(housing) witness(baton) to Besançon aimed at(bound for) the population of the city and the peripheral municipalities of Besançon, to reduce the loads(responsibilities) of the households(houseworks), reduce their impact on the environment and answer the objectives 3 X 20. This action(share) has 5 objectives: - set up a raising awareness(sensitization) to the eco-public-spirited behavior (energy, water, waste)
- Propose animations with the inhabitants
- Contribute to the fight(wrestling) against the energy precariousness
- Mobilize the concerned partners

The sector of the residential on the territory of Grand Besançon represents 27 % of energy consumptions and 11 % of greenhouse gas emissions. The objectives of actions(shares) are: - to get acquainted / train at least 200 families (among which 10 to 15 families with energy precariousness) on problems energy / waste / qualities of the air / travel / water, so that they become afterward référentes families for others.
- Accompany these dernnières in the reduction of at least 10 % of their energy expenditure.
So since 2009, 157 families are at present registered in the project. It allows every economy about 130 000kWh and the reduction of 21,54 T of rejection(discharge) of GES

The City of Besançon possesses a network of district heating created in 1968 and which desssert a district of meadows of 8 400 housing and meadows of 53 establishments (school, commercial) Until 2014, this network was fed by the heat produced by an incineration plant (40 %), a boiler room wood (22 %) and generators with fossil energy. From the end of the year, in parallel of an extension of the network, the second boiler room natural wooden / gas will be installed(settled). So on the territory harmed(served) by this network the energy supply will be more than 80 % in renewable energy. Furthermore to incite the users to reduce their energy consumption, the City set up on sale contracts an option " control(master's degree) of the energy ": in case of economy superior to 4 % the subscriber benefits from a reduction of invoice and in case of overconsumption the subscriber is penalized.
