Countries: Germany, Greece, Lithuania, Netherlands, Poland, Spain, United Kingdom
Duration: 2017-2020
The objective of the EU HEROES project is to address the challenges faced by EU PV projects in terms of grid restrictions and the progressive reduction of subsidies for solar PV. These challenges are addressed through:
- The identification and development of cooperative models that allow greater deployment of photovoltaic solar energy in areas with grid restrictions, working with grid operators and 100% renewable energy communities.
- Cost-benefit analysis and an assessment of the economic viability of business models that allow the community to store, use, aggregate and exchange solar electricity between locations.
- Empower citizens to have a greater say in their energy supply, democratizing energy and recirculating the benefits within those communities.
Creara is responsible for coordinating business model development activities in all participating countries and directing all national activities in Spain.
Results achieved
Several PV projects have been analysed from an economic point of view, and innovative business models for the deployment of these projects on a European scale were identified and designed.
Se han analizado varios proyectos fotovoltaicos desde el punto de vista económico y se han identificado y diseñado modelos de negocio innovadores para el despliegue de estos proyectos a escala europea.
