Energy communities are legal figures that seek to stimulate energy self-consumption, implementing alternative electricity sources that aim at sustainability and care for the environment.
In Senda they defend that these entities are the ones that will take the lead in energy transformation plans in the future. For this reason, they have decided to accompany public institutions and companies in the creation of their own Senda energy communities, in such a way that they can contribute as active actors in the expansion of clean energy and the mitigation of climate change.
Benefits of energy communities
Unlike individuals who install an individual electricity production system, Senda energy communities focus on implementing solutions that benefit a broader group of people or a complex business conglomerate. This implies that the system will not only cover the energy demands of the community, but also provide other benefits that translate into social capital and economic returns for the members.
Among the most visible economic benefits of the Senda energy communities is the possibility of allocating the resources obtained from sustainable performance to the social development of the environment. By presenting themselves as active actors in the implementation of a self-consumption energy system, members can also benefit from the savings that the use of their own electricity production structure entails. The community is also in the capacity to determine the level of collective consumption and, in this way, establish individual goals that do not exceed the negotiated minimum and the energy capture capacity of the system.
Differences between energy communities and shared self-consumption
The Senda energy communities go beyond the scope of neighborhoods with shared self-consumption, since, in addition to installing and managing an energy system that provides electricity to all its members, they are also organized to jointly adopt sustainable habits and even sell the energy obtained of their repositories, by virtue of community growth. This is how they can install charging stations for electric vehicles, connection points for mobile devices or any other solution in their community that allows them to spread the use of renewable energy and receive resources that can be invested in social capital projects.
Senda accompanies public institutions and companies to design and implement their energy communities, in such a way that they can take advantage of this community work, circular economy and cooperative initiative. At its energy and community transformation offices, institutions and companies can receive all the necessary advice to determine which self-consumption system is best for their community. Likewise, Senda’s advisors also help in the creation of everything necessary to establish agreements that help the community to consolidate and achieve the proposed objectives.
On the other hand, these experts point out that, right now and until July, in various autonomous communities it is possible to request subsidies for the creation of these communities, thus facilitating the ecological transition.
Those interested in forming a Senda energy community should only access the website of this consultancy and request more information about its accompanying services for public institutions and companies.
