Energy communities and One-Stop Shops: Who does what and how can they work together?

Energy communities are becoming more involved in citizen engagement, local energy services and, in some cases, home renovation. At the same time, One-Stop Shops (OSS), local authorities and energy agencies are often operating in the same territories and addressing closely related renovation challenges.

This opens up opportunities for cooperation, but also raises a simple question: Who does what? In some scenarios, their roles can overlap, especially around advice, awareness raising, identifying renovation needs, and supporting households through the renovation process.

In this meeting of the EU Peers Transnational Community, through 2 different study cases from Italy and Spain, we will look at how these actors can work together in practice, with clear and complementary roles.
