National Reports (4x) on Evolving Regulatory Frameworks for the Market and System Integration of Energy Communities

Summary
Task 5.3 includes analysing conditions that define the impact on the energy sector have, from a regulatory perspective, as well as roles and responsibilities they are meant and/or disallowed to fulfil, in the process of being established and interacting on existing markets. In this context, D5.3 will report on the progress made on establishing enabling frameworks for energy communities (incl. through the transposition of relevant EU rules in Sweden, Spain, the Netherlands and Greece), as well as the evolution of conditions that facilitate the market and system integration of collective self-consumption. Further relevant regulatory challenges address the development of (local) flexibility markets, the use of storage, network tariff reforms, sector integration, data management and interoperability, as well as changing roles and responsibilities of system operators (in particular DSOs).
