Introduction

The European Energy Communities Facility (ENERCOM Facility) will devote at least 7 million euros to provide direct support to emerging energy communities across Europe, mostly in the form of lump sum grants.

Objectives

Thanks to the ENERCOM Facility, at least 140 emerging initiatives will develop and implement business plans to trigger investments in sustainable energy.

Support Mechanisms

ENERCOM Facility will further support energy communities in the development of their business models through:

  • Trainings
  • Related capacity building material

This approach paves the way for replicable business models with long-term sustainability.

Outreach and Impact

To maximize the outreach and impacts of the ENERCOM Facility and to ensure the effectiveness of its actions, it will build on a European network of national experts. This network will create a bridge between the EU-level and grassroots initiatives.

Role of National Experts

The national experts' network will be called upon to:

  1. Amplify messages to their respective networks of energy communities
  2. Provide first-line support throughout the support programme

Legacy

The ENERCOM Facility will capitalize on the success and the legacy of:

  • The Energy Communities Repository
  • The Rural Energy Community Advisory Hub
  • The European City Facility
