CE 1is Augustus new reforms are taken into effect, such as every month. Le Figaro takes up the balance.
As every year, the transition from July to August is characterized by the entry into force of a considerable number of new government measures. Here are the most important changes to remember.

The percentage of the French preferred placement increases to 1.7%. A drop offered by De Banque de France and justified by the purchase of inflation to 1is Semester 2025. “For book A, the rate of 1.7 % has two advantages, defends itself Bercy, It remains considerably higher than inflation and protects savings against the French. Savings are interesting “. Second advantage: “The decrease remains extremely positive for social housing. In memory, when the speed of the book has fallen, social landlords can borrow more and therefore build more social housing, which is important in a context where housing is extremely tense”It is said. The booklet for sustainable and solidarity development sees its rate tailored to that of book A, the reimbursement therefore falls to 1.7%.
The Popular Savings Book (LEP) sees its rate lowered from 3.5% to 2.7%
Reserved for modest households, this rate also drops. A limited decrease for the 12 million LEPs opened, because according to Bercy it was initially planned at 2.2%. “The formula has not been applied exactly for the Lep. A gesture has been made in favor of the state. It is to encourage the savings of all, and that, regardless of the level of savings, we encourage people to save, including small amounts. Arbitration has been done to encourage social and most modest housing”Details The Ministry of the Economy.
Verses on gas and electricity
Until 1 August, the VAT rate on the gas and electricity subscription was reduced to 5.5%, while the consumption was 20%. From this date, VAT on gas and electricity subscriptions will increase to switch to 20%. The reason is simple: to harmonize the tax on European law, a directive requires that France applies a uniform VAT rate at all tariff components of an energy product. Consequences: The price of a gas or electricity subscription will rise sharply.
But to be as painless as possible for consumers, two other taxes will fall. First the price for the use of public electricity networks (known as Turpe), which if the name suggests only relates to electricity. With this decrease, the increase in the costs of an electric subscription will be lower than that of a gas subscription. The second reimbursement that lowers is that of the excise duty. Withdrawn directly from the consumption of gas or electricity, it will fall as follows between August 1 and December 31, 2025:
- Reduction of the electricity excise duty: from € 33.7/MWh to € 29.98/MWh
- Gas bike reduction: from € 17.16/MWh to € 15.43/MWh
Consequences: those who consume less electricity and gas must lose somewhat, because the fixed part that is subject to the increase in VAT) has more weight on their invoice than the variable part (involved by the fall in excise duty) according to a simulation on the comparator of the energy mediator led by Moneyvox, as well as a comparison by the Hello Application.

On the other hand, consumers who use more electricity are winners, according to De CRE: “The average level of the subscription increases by € 23 VAT per year and the average electricity share drops € 27 including tax per year, a net decrease in the account of approximately € 4 including tax per year (for an average consumption of 4.4 MWh per year, the average account including taxes from € 1,050 to € 1.046 TTC).”
The price of gas is increasing
De Cre has published his indicator and the price of gas climbs in August, especially for the subscription part. The latter now costs 134.14 euros including taxes and water and hot per year (+16.21 euros) and 330, 80 euros including tax for heating (+39.97 euros). For example, gas -heated households will see their account increase by 40 euros. A sharp increase that is particularly justified by the increase in gas VAT as previously explained.
Conversely, the average price per kWh falls slightly. The average price including tax per kWh is 0.13920 euros for cooking and hot water (at 0.13970 euros in July) and 0.10801 euros for heating (at 0.10852 euros in July).
The average sights also rise slightly with an average marker price of € 98.22/MWh excl. (Against 95.47 euros/MWh excl.
