Renewable Energy Communities – Driving a Fair and Green Energy Transition in Denmark

Renewable Energy Communities are emerging as a powerful tool in the transition to a more sustainable and inclusive energy system. By enabling citizens, municipalities, and businesses to jointly produce, share, and consume renewable energy, Renewable Energy Communities can help reduce electricity provision costs, support grid flexibility, and defer costly grid reinforcements.

But what exactly are Renewable Energy Communities, and how do they work in practice? What are the economic benefits and challenges? And how can a group of neighbours or a local community navigate the evolving Danish landscape of energy communities?

In this webinar, we will explore:

• What Renewable Energy Communities are and how they are defined in European and Danish contexts
• The economic models behind Renewable Energy Communities – costs, savings, and incentives
• How Renewable Energy Communities can contribute to grid balancing and system flexibility
• The current status and future outlook for Renewable Energy Communities in Denmark
• Practical considerations for communities interested in forming or joining a Renewable Energy Community

This session is relevant for energy professionals, municipalities, housing associations, and engaged citizens who want to understand the potential of Renewable Energy Communities and their role in Denmark’s green transition.
