The document focuses on the concept of collective energy action, existence of collective energy actions on the ground and lack of acknowledgement and research and other support for such initiatives in the process of local stakeholder involvement in the European energy transition.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">This paper is the result of 2 years of work, action and research carried out\u00a0with 40+ on the ground initiatives across Europe within DECIDE project. The results of this work show that while energy communities (defined as Renewable Energy Communities and Citizen Energy Communities) have their space in the energy transition, the view on collective and community involvement needs to be wider to include most on the ground initiatives and account for their efforts and impact in the ongoing energy transition. Please read the position paper to see in more details.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">The position paper is a call to discussion for more broader policy, research support and action on the European level. Please feel free to react to our position paper and let us know your feedback &#8211; <a href=\"mailto:info@decide4energy.eu\">info@decide4energy.eu<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">DECIDE is a Horizon 2020 project that aims to gain a better understanding of how energy communities and energy efficiency services are established and managed. It also intends to identify which kind of communications and interactions work best to encourage participation in energy communities for specific types of individuals and groups, and to test and transfer knowledge in pilot projects across Europe.<\/p>\n<p>The project focusses on three levels of Energy Communities:<br \/>\n\u2022 those existing at the start of the project and included in the work plan as such,<br \/>\n\u2022 those that will be initiated throughout the project, and<br \/>\n\u2022 those not directly partnering in the project but benefiting from the exchange and expertise of DECIDE.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Go and check also DECIDE project\u00a0website and you will find&#8230;<\/strong><br \/>\n\u2022 DECIDE resources &#8211; different reports, overviews, researches etc (Yearly policy briefs on EC regulations in different states, business models and engagement of participants in EC projects): <a href=\"https:\/\/decide4energy.eu\/resources\">decide4energy.eu\/resources<\/a>;<br \/>\n\u2022 The Power of Community educational board game: <a href=\"https:\/\/thepowerofcommunity.space\/\">thepowerofcommunity.space<\/a>;<br \/>\n\u2022 Knowledge Hub \u2013 <a href=\"https:\/\/knowledge4energy.eu\/\">knowledge4energy.eu<\/a>;<br \/>\n\u2022 Energy Communities Hub \u2013 <a href=\"https:\/\/energycommunitieshub.com\/\">energycommunitieshub.com<\/a>;<strong><br \/>\n<\/strong>\u2026and much more from <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/decide4energy.eu\/\">decide4energy.eu<\/a>.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<div id=\"c364\" class=\"content-element-container margin-top-bottom-large\">\n<div class=\"content-element-content default-box padding-default\">\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.trea.ee\/eng\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/TREADECIDEEUflag-banner.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-3636 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/www.trea.ee\/eng\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/TREADECIDEEUflag-banner.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1646\" height=\"226\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.trea.ee\/eng\/files\/2021\/07\/TREADECIDEEUflag-banner-200x27.jpg 200w, https:\/\/www.trea.ee\/eng\/files\/2021\/07\/TREADECIDEEUflag-banner-300x41.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.trea.ee\/eng\/files\/2021\/07\/TREADECIDEEUflag-banner-400x55.jpg 400w, https:\/\/www.trea.ee\/eng\/files\/2021\/07\/TREADECIDEEUflag-banner-600x82.jpg 600w, https:\/\/www.trea.ee\/eng\/files\/2021\/07\/TREADECIDEEUflag-banner-768x105.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.trea.ee\/eng\/files\/2021\/07\/TREADECIDEEUflag-banner-800x110.jpg 800w, https:\/\/www.trea.ee\/eng\/files\/2021\/07\/TREADECIDEEUflag-banner-1024x141.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.trea.ee\/eng\/files\/2021\/07\/TREADECIDEEUflag-banner-1200x165.jpg 1200w, https:\/\/www.trea.ee\/eng\/files\/2021\/07\/TREADECIDEEUflag-banner-1536x211.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.trea.ee\/eng\/files\/2021\/07\/TREADECIDEEUflag-banner.jpg 1646w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1646px) 100vw, 1646px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>We are thrilled to share with you the final version  [&#8230;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":315974,"featured_media":3688,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_active":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_note":"","_monsterinsights_sitenote_category":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[15,1],"tags":[102],"class_list":["post-3687","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-news","category-uncategorized","tag-decide"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.trea.ee\/eng\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3687","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.trea.ee\/eng\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.trea.ee\/eng\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.trea.ee\/eng\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/315974"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.trea.ee\/eng\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=3687"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"https:\/\/www.trea.ee\/eng\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3687\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":3690,"href":"https:\/\/www.trea.ee\/eng\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3687\/revisions\/3690"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.trea.ee\/eng\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/3688"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.trea.ee\/eng\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=3687"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.trea.ee\/eng\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=3687"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.trea.ee\/eng\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=3687"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
