Eurosolar for all: energy communities for a fair energy transition in Europe (Sun4All)

Descripción del proyecto

Una solución solar comunitaria para dinamizar hogares pobres

El acceso a energía renovable asequible es importante en la transición ecológica de Europa y en la consecución de los objetivos del Acuerdo de París. Si bien la proporción de energía renovable se ha más que duplicado entre 2004 y 2019, no todos los hogares pueden permitirse sistemas de energía renovable. En este contexto, el proyecto financiado con fondos europeos Sun4All diseñará un programa de ayudas financieras para el acceso a energía renovable de hogares con pobreza energética. En concreto, ofrecerá a consumidores vulnerables la oportunidad de suscribirse a comunidades solares. Los beneficiarios del programa serán copropietarios de una planta fotovoltaica local y los ingresos producidos a través de la generación de energía se utilizarán para reducir las facturas energéticas.

Objetivo

Ensuring that vulnerable households have access to renewable energies is equitable, helps to cover energy needs, and can support multiple policy goals, such as affordable energy, job creation, and improved public health. Although the need is great, many households may not be able to afford RES installations or may be inhibited from participating in the energy transition for other reasons such as lack of access to information, difficulties to access finance or ownership patterns.
EuroSolar for All (Sun4All) sets up a financial support scheme for renewable energy access for energy poor households. The programme offers vulnerable consumers the opportunity to subscribe to community solar. The general scheme is based on the existing New York’s initiative named “Solar for All” and will be adapted and implemented in 4 cities and regions in Europe: Barcelona (ES), Communauté de Communes Coeur de Savoie (FR), Rome (IT) and Almada (PT).
The overall idea is to offer solar shares to vulnerable consumers instead of a traditional social subsidy (p.e to pay utility bill arrears). The beneficiaries of the programme will be co-owners of a local PV plant and the revenues produced through the generation and selling of the energy will be used to reduce energy bills. Besides, ES4All presents other multiple co benefits:
-Beneficiaries save money through a free community solar subscription
-Access is ensured whether participants are renters or homeowners ensuring their participation into the energy transition and leaving no one behind.
-Eurosolar for All facilitates behaviour change and provides tailored advice to beneficiaries.
-The programme optimizes social subsidies by transforming them into a profitable investment for the beneficiaries
After testing and evaluating the model in these 4 cities and regions, replication and up-scaling of the programme is foreseen in at least 10 other EU cities and planned in other cities and regions to become an established programme in Europe.
