Abstract(s)

Across Europe, householders have taken the opportunity to produce their electricity, helping them to reduce their electricity bill as well as reducing carbon emissions, by installing rooftop Photovoltaic Panels (PV) on their buildings. New adequate business models are needed for improving the sharing of PV between consumers in a community. Both technical and economic aspects should be considered in a clear way for consumers to understand and benefit from the community. In this paper, an overview of energy communities is provided to support the innovative PV sharing models for buildings, which are proposed in a way to be clear for community members. The developed concepts are supported by the formulation of the optimization problem to be solved by the community manager.
