Territoire D'energie Lot Et Garonne

What Territoire D'energie Lot Et Garonne does

Territoire d'Energie Lot-et-Garonne (TE 47) is a public intermunicipal cooperation establishment (Établissement Public de Coopération Intercommunale), founded in 1953 and headquartered in Agen, France. It holds the exclusive statutory mandate to organize public electricity distribution across all 319 communes of the Lot-et-Garonne department, with infrastructure operations delegated to Enedis under a concession contract through 2048 and gas distribution operated by GRDF (through 2041) and PRIMAGAZ for two communes. Beyond its traditional network competencies, TE 47 has progressively expanded into public lighting design and maintenance, urban planning authorizations (~2,000 opinions/year), telecommunications network coordination with RODP recovery (€300,000+ recovered), renewable heat (OCRe program with ADEME), BioGNV refueling (Témob network, 3 operational stations, 1 planned), EV charging through the MObiVE regional network (~800 stations, 2,000 charge points), photovoltaic deployment via its 85%-owned subsidiary AVERGIES (€5.3M capital), agricultural methanization via Co'meth 47, and the XMAP geographic information system with PCRS precision mapping.

The organization's revenue mechanics blend tax-based income, concession royalties, and member contributions. In 2024, total receipts reached €33.93M (€13.67M operating + €20.26M investment). Operating receipts are dominated by the Tax on Final Electricity Consumption (TCCFE) at €7.59M (56%), supplemented by concession fees (€1.25M), commune contributions and subsidies (€3.13M), and heat/energy sales (€1.23M). Pricing for connection projects varies by commune category (rural Type C vs urban Type A/B), while CEE energy-efficiency financing offsets up to 60% of works costs and TE 47 retains a 10% processing fee. Operations are delivered through 7 territorial energy commissions (CTEs), with a 53-person staff currently being consolidated into a new 1,527 m² eco-district headquarters scheduled for delivery February 2026.

TE 47's value proposition to member communes is integrated, single-counterpart access to network modernization, energy transition services, collective purchasing, and territorial data infrastructure that no individual commune could replicate. In January 2026, new statutes added IRVAE (e-bike charging) and non-methane/non-propane gas competencies (CO2, hydrogen), signaling continued scope expansion under President Jean-Marc Causse (since 2020) and a 16-member bureau of vice-presidents.

Broad incumbents

• GRDF: National gas distribution system operator (Engie subsidiary) and concessionaire for gas distribution in 72 of the 74 communes served by TE 47. Operates the underlying gas network infrastructure under concession contract with similar territorial coverage logic.
• Engie: Major French energy group and parent of GRDF, with broad operations in electricity generation, gas distribution, and energy services. Operates at national scale across the same energy value chain that TE 47 organizes at the departmental level.
• EDF: France's incumbent national electric utility and parent of Enedis. Engages with TE 47 as upstream generator/supplier and through the regional purchasing groupement de commandes for energy supply to public entities across Nouvelle-Aquitaine.
• Enedis: National electricity distribution system operator (EDF subsidiary) and concessionaire that operates the 1,400 km HTA/BT network owned by TE 47. Comparable scale of distribution infrastructure and operations, but operating as the national DSO rather than a departmental organizing authority.

Others

• SEM AVERGIES: 85%-owned subsidiary of TE 47 with €5.3M capital, developing rooftop, parking canopy, and ground-mounted photovoltaic installations. Operates as TE 47's dedicated renewable project development vehicle with comparable business model to other SEM renewables developers.
• ADEME: French ecological transition agency providing funding, technical support, and regulatory frameworks for renewable heat (OCRe), methanization (Co'meth 47), and energy efficiency projects. A core strategic partner rather than a direct competitor.
• Fédération Nationale des Collectivités Concédantes et Régies (FNCCR): National federation representing French local authorities organizing public energy and water networks, including TE 47 and its peer syndicats. Provides industry coordination, advocacy, and benchmarking but is not itself a direct operating peer.

Direct peers

• Syndicat Départemental d'Énergie, d'Électricité et de Gaz de la Gironde (SDEEG): Departmental energy syndicat covering Gironde, with similar organizing authority role for public electricity and gas distribution, network reinforcement, and energy transition services across member communes.
• Territoire d'Énergie Isère (TE38): Syndicat d'énergie of the Isère department operating under the same French Territoire d'Énergie model with statutory competence over electricity distribution and an expanded renewable energy / mobility offering. Comparable in scope, governance, and member-commune service model.
• Syndicat Intercommunal d'Énergies de Maine-et-Loire (SIEML): Departmental energy authority for Maine-et-Loire providing electricity distribution organization, renewable energy development, public lighting, and energy transition support to its member communes.
