A guide for national policymakers to support the implementation of smart energy service models.
The InEExS project has developed its ‘Policy Roadmaps for the Replication of Innovative Energy Service Models,” to support national policymakers in understanding relevant EU directives and regulations for promoting energy efficiency and the clean energy transition by enabling the integration of smart energy services.
The roadmaps emphasise the importance of digitalisation, smart services, and stakeholder collaboration to overcome barriers
The roadmaps cover:
- The barriers to adoption, such as, complex regulatory frameworks, limited consumer awareness, lack of regulatory support for energy communities, insufficient market access for smart services, and high upfront costs for energy efficiency projects.
- The relevant EU legislative frameworks, the Fit-for-55 package, Electricity Directive (EU/2019/944), Electricity Regulation (EU/2019/943), Renewable Energy Directive, Energy Efficiency Directive, and Energy Performance of Buildings Directive.
- Recommendations for the creation of national frameworks for integrating renewables, standardisation of energy rules, development of smart energy pricing models, promotion of energy communities, deployment of smart grids and meters, and establishment of flexibility markets.
The roadmaps serve as a starting guide for national policymakers to develop more detailed national strategies, that are aligned with EU directives and that support the clean energy transition.
The roadmaps are available in English, Greek, German and Spanish .
