Community coaching

Navigating the different stages of citizen energy projects is an exciting journey, but it doesn’t come without its challenges. To ensure you can bring your project to completion, REScoop.eu has developed capacity-building services to help energy communities move forward at any stage of their projects.

Local authorities who want to reach out to their citizens and support the foundation of an energy cooperative or energy community may benefit from our renowned LICHT approach.

Advocacy

In addition to the advocacy efforts included in the REScoop.eu membership, we offer tailored advocacy services to members and non-members. We can for example provide support to policymakers and community energy advocates for the development of policies that support the creation and growth of energy communities, or conduct policy analysis. We can further write guidance reports and give policy presentations, lectures and workshops.

Toolbox

Are you wondering how to set up a renewable energy project in your community? Would you and your neighbours like to improve energy efficiency and energy consumption in your homes, or set up an e-carsharing service? Are you looking for financing models for citizen energy projects, or for inspiration on how citizens and municipalities can work together better?

Our toolbox provides you with guidance and successful examples for renewable energy projects that are fully or partially owned by citizens. It includes guides developed by REScoop.eu, but also inspiration and good practices from our members all across Europe.
