Energy Communities with coneva Community

With our complete digital solution, we support municipalities, cooperatives and other companies in initiating, marketing and operating energy communities. For the members, participation offers both ecological and economic advantages. Financially, participation pays off through a reduced price for the electricity generated and consumed within the community ("collective self-consumption").

The Renewable Energy Directive (RED II) defines the principles and regulations for the establishment of energy communities. In principle, natural persons, companies and also public institutions can establish an energy community. In any case, it is a "legal entity", in the case of individuals organized as an association or cooperative, which becomes the provider and operator and organizes the distribution of energy among the participants.

The establishment of an energy community is regulated differently in the EU member states. Depending on national regulations and the status of RED II implementation, the steps for establishing an energy community are sometimes precise and sometimes not yet regulated at all. Essential, and this applies to all countries and markets, is the inclusion of the network operator, as this remains responsible for the uninterrupted and secure supply of the participants. We will be happy to support you in clarifying the requirements in your respective national or local context.

coneva does not act as energy provider nor as a community operator, but as a pure technology partner. However, if interested, coneva is happy to offer contacts to relevant players in the market. As a technology partner, we offer the software-based services, covering the community energy aggregation, distribution, and optimization, including the appropriate user frontends.

We provide a modular pricing for our services. In addition to a setup fee, we offer a three-tier licensing model that starts with aggregation in the basic version and is offered at an entry-level price. For the digital connection of the metering points (consumer, prosumer or also pure generation plants) we offer technical hardware at reasonable costs.
