The Local Energy Communities (LECs) use case family within OMEGA-X encompasses a variety of pilots, including Vallès Oriental in Granollers (Spain), Osimo (Italy), the R&D Campus in Belgrade (Serbia), Valverde in Evora (Portugal), and Zaragoza Inclusive Solar Community (Spain).
OMEGA-X has been developing, implementing and validating different innovative data-driven services that leverage data from different community actors in order to address different challenges and opportunities in the energy sector, such as increasing the share of renewable energy sources, enhancing the flexibility of the grid, empowering local energy communities, and integrating different energy sectors, exploiting its full value for the benefit of the community and the whole energy value chain.
The main goal is to provide these communities with the tools to manage their energy needs efficiently, demonstrating how collaboration among multiple stakeholders and the adoption of innovative technologies can contribute to reducing environmental impact and promoting sustainable development, while addressing the unique context and challenges each pilot faces.
