The slide is to illustrate the relationship between Renewables' Directive and Electricity Directive with regard to active customers and renewable self-consumers.

- Strict governance and participation criteria
- Geographical proximity
- Incentives
- Favorable conditions for RES support
Citizens’ energy communities

Recognition as a market actor
No discrimination

Strict governance criteria
The slide is to illustrate the relationship between Renewables' Directive and Electricity Directive with regard to energy communities, providing a summary of the differences.

4. Implementation Challenges
DO NOT PRODUCE MORE LAW THAN NEEDED !
How to share energy among community members?
Collective self-consumption rules
Platforms
How to implement the enabling framework?
Value-driven
Rules for commercial activities of charities, associations, foundations or NGOs
Regulatory sandboxes
Legislation
NRAs
NECPs
Regional and local authorities
E-Directive and RED II contain a number of general clauses or terms that are not sharply defined. This slide is to provide possible interpretations of those general clauses. MS may take benefit from the existing rules while implementing the CEP
What is ‘geographical proximity’ and ‘confined boundaries’ ?
What is effective control?
Corporate law
Tax law
~unbundling rules
Zoning plans
DSO mapping

The levels of pyramids represent the level of rights and privileges granted to prosumers and communities. The first pyramid represents a case when MS only implement the CEP without any additional national rules. In that case Citizen Energy Communities are a broader category but they have less rights and incentives than renewables energy communities. In two other scenarios there are national rules. In the first one, there is a very narrow category of communities that get more rights than CECs and RECs. In the last one the national model is broad (e.g. Polish clusters), but gives the communities less rights,
“National golden standard”
(or a regulatory sandbox)
“Box ticking”

Two other scenarios will apply in more amibitous Member States. In the first one, MS apply rights and incentives designed for RECS to all the existing categories of the communities. The last scenario foresees a variety of regulatory approaches, which is perfectly legal, as long as, the minimum level prescribed for CECs and RECs by the CEP is observed.
