On behalf of a group of European stakeholders, we would like to highlight the relevance and suggest improvements on the dedicated energy sharing framework proposed by the European Commission in the revision of the Electricity Market Design.
This new right will stimulate the move towards a consumer-centric, decentralised energy system that empowers consumers and prosumers, while protecting them from excessive price spikes thanks to renewable energy shared at a lower price. Energy sharing should also contribute to mitigate local congestions, incentivize an efficient use of existing public network and reduce grid reinforcement needs.
