Renewable energy communities

¿What is a Renewable Energy Community?

Invoicing energy is a challenge by itself, and now we have Renewable Energy Communities. From a legal point of view, European regulation makes a difference between Citizen Energy Communities (CEC) and Renewable Energy Communities, (REC).

In Spain, Energy Communities must be legal entities, must be renewable, and must have open and volunteer participation policies. They are essentially green smart microcro-grids where production and consumption is decentralised. These legal definitions and regulatory changes have just started.
‍
At QUIXOTIC 360 we understand Renewable Energy Communities as a social movement and our goal is the environmental and economic benefit of all the actors involved in such communities, by means of using distributed generation, sharing your domestic surplusses, etc.

Reasons to Build a
Renewable Energy Community

We often hear Self Consumption, Collective Self Consumption and Energy Communities as if they were different entities. Self Consumption and Energy Communities are not antagonic concepts but parts of the activity-subject dichotomy. Whatever shape or legal instrument we chose, joining this global energy revolution carries the following advantages.

Decarbonize our local environment with 100% green production, incentivise the electric vehicle, aerothermia, etc.

Generate a sense of community, sharing energy surplus between neighbours and businesses, removing the dependency from energy suppliers.

More cost-efficient than installing your own solar panels, since the community shares structural fixed costs for the installation.

Substantial savings in your energy bills, not only for the self-consumed energy, but because of the bargaining power that comes from aggregating all members of the community.
