  SOLEIL beam orbit stability is being significantly improved. A first effort was set on long term stability for specific beamlines (new 160 m long Nanoscopium and Hard X-rays beamlines). BPM and XBPM steel supports will be replaced for reducing their sensitiveness to temperature drift. Thermal expansion of INVAR and fused Silica stands has been measured. INVAR has been selected for the new BPM supports. A second effort aimed at improving the orbit stability of beamlines based on bending magnets. We plan to use their first XBPM in the global orbit feedback loops (slow and fast). For that purpose new XBPM electronics called Libera photons will be used. Soleil, having contributed to the development, tested extensively the first series. A third effort focused on noise source location. An application developed in-house has identified localized orbit perturbation sources introducing spurious spectrum lines at 46, 50 and 54 Hz on the orbit. They originate from fans rotating close to ceramics chambers of kickers, FCT and shaker. Their suppression decreases the vertical integrated noise down to 300 nm in the DC-500Hz frequency range.
