This paper evaluates the economic impact of Renewable Energy Communities (RECs) on the Italian wholesale power market. Combining a bottom-up engineering approach with a short-run economic impact assessment, the study begins by mapping…
The focus on Renewable Energy Communities (REC) is fastly growing after the European Union (EU) has introduced a dedicated regulation in 2018. The idea of creating local groups of citizens, small- and medium-sized companies, and public…
We propose in this paper an optimal control framework for renewable energy communities (RECs) equipped with controllable assets. Such RECs allow its members to exchange production surplus through an internal market. The objective is to…
Recent years have seen rapid increases in intermittent renewable generation, requiring novel battery energy storage systems (BESS) solutions. One recent trend is the emergence of large grid-connected batteries, that can be controlled to…
Local Energy Communities (LECs) facilitate consumer involvement in local electricity generation and distribution, offering a significant opportunity for society to participate in the energy transition. This paper presents the optimization…
Renewable Energy Communities (RECs) have been officially introduced into the European legislation through the Clean Energy for all Europeans package. A REC is defined as an association of citizens, commercial activities, enterprises, and…
Local Electricity Communities (communaut\'es \'electriques locales, CEL) will become operational in Switzerland in 2026, allowing prosumers, consumers, and storage operators within the same municipality and distribution system operator…
Renewable energy sources (RES) are close to grid parity compared with conventional generation. Therefore, it is important to consider proper costs to assess the economics instead of technological aspects only. While some scholars are in the…
Renewable energy communities are legal entities involving the association of citizens, organizations and local businesses aimed at contributing to the green energy transition and providing social, environmental and economic benefits to…
Efforts in the fight against Climate Change are increasingly oriented towards new energy efficiency strategies in Smart Grids (SGs). In 2018, with proper legislation, the European Union (EU) defined the Renewable Energy Community (REC) as a…
As energy communities move from policy design to implementation in Switzerland, understanding their performance in practice has become increasingly important. A techno-economic assessment of a regulation-compliant LEC is presented under the…
In recent years, the electrification of Canadian Remote Communities (RCs) has received significant attention, as their current electric energy systems are not only expensive, but are also highly polluting due to the prevalence of diesel…
In the 21st century, transitioning to renewable energy sources is imperative, with fossil fuel reserves depleting rapidly and recognizing critical environmental issues such as climate change, air pollution, water pollution, and habitat…
Electricity distribution networks that contain large photovoltaic solar systems can experience power flows between customers. These may create both technical and socio-economic challenges. This paper establishes how these challenges can be…
This paper develops a multi-objective optimization framework to analyze the trade-offs between annual costs and resilience in energy communities. Under this framework, three energy community operation strategies are analyzed: a reference…
In this paper, the extent to which the integration of rooftop photovoltaic (PV) power with a community energy storage (CES) system can reduce energy cost and distribution network (DN) loss is explored. To this end, three energy trading…
The sustained future growth of renewable energy in the distribution network is governed by its financial viability. The recent subsidies in Flanders for photovoltaic (PV) and battery are used to calculate the payback period on prosumer…
Energy cooperatives (ECs) such as residential and industrial microgrids have the potential to mitigate increasing fluctuations in renewable electricity generation, but only if their joint response is coordinated. However, the coordination…
In this report, several control strategies for microgrids with renewable energy resources and battery energy storage systems are proposed. Renewable energy has the potential to reduce global carbon emissions, while higher penetration of…
This article proposes an optimization problem formulation to find the optimal sizes of Photovoltaics (PV) and Battery Energy Storage Systems (BESS) for individual participants within the context of the Renewable Energy Community (REC). An…
