NRG2Peers

Peer-to-peer communities in a European context to increase energy efficiency and integrate a higher share of renewable energy

NRG2peers is a Horizon 2020 project that aims to support the uptake of next-generation peer to peer energy communities in Europe. Peer to peer relates to the ability to exchange energy amongst the members of a project, which increase energy efficiency as well as increasing the share of renewable energies. In addition to that, a readiness level indicator tool is developed, where community members can, based on their present assets, determine their readiness for a smart community and tips with regards to the implementation of this.

Challenge

Currently, there are several energy communities across Europe that enables its users to strengthen their energy portfolio and co-creation. However, all of these communities face multiple challenges. Those challenges are not solely technical in nature, but organisational challenges are also faced. The NRG2peers project will create a platform to gather experiences, knowledge and lessons learned amongst those communities. This platform can help you identify whether your neighbourhood or municipality is ready to set up an energy community.
