What are Renewable Energy Communities?

Renewable Energy Communities (CERs) are organizations or aggregations of individuals, companies or local authorities that collaborate to produce, consume and manage energy.energy produced from renewable sources in a shared and sustainable way. These communities aim to promote theself , sharing of energy within the community itself. Through the installation of renewable systems, the adoption of intelligent energy management technologies and the choice of energy management models governance innovative, renewable energy communities seek to reduce the use of fossil fuels, promoting energy efficiency and the transition towards a sustainable and decentralized energy system.

Why create a Renewable Energy Community?

Creating a renewable energy community delivers economic benefits, environmental e social, promoting sustainability and energy autonomy at a local level. CERs make it possible to become more independent from traditional energy sources and market prices, promoting the active participation of citizens in the production and management of energy.
These communities therefore represent an opportunity for both private groups that they want to pursue decarbonization goals e reduce your costs for the energy that for public entities who intend to combat the phenomenon of energy poverty and reduce the impacts on its territory.

We also analyze the cost/benefit ratio of the plant solutions, also considering any impacts environmental and socio-economic benefits for all the actors involved.

START OF OPERATIONAL PHASE AND ACTIVATION OF CER

  • Due Diligence and supervision of the design phases of the plant serving the CER;
  • Preparation of technical-administrative documentation to access public funding;
  • Preparation of documentation forconnection to the network and for registration with the GSE;
  • Design and development of communication and promotion campaigns.

TECHNICAL FEASIBILITY ANALYSIS

  • Analysis of electricity consumption and reconstruction of consumption profiles
  • Evaluation of installable photovoltaic power or already available
  • Selection of utilities suitable for the installation of systems, inspections and verification ofstructural suitability e architectural
  • Verification of existing systems and evaluation of any projects underway or planned
