Description:

RESCHOOL It aims to promote energy communities as a formal channel for grouping active consumers and prosumers, empowering them as key players in the energy sector. The project seeks to facilitate their interaction with the electricity grid as providers of flexibility and to enhance their participation in electricity markets. This is achieved through the development of advanced tools designed for energy and flexibility management, combined with collaborative and gamification strategies to reinforce citizen engagement. The validation results are used to develop realistic guides and business models that support the effective creation and growth of energy communities across the EU.

Within this consortium, Bamboo Energy is responsible for developing the platform for energy communities, flexibility trading schemes and energy services, validating these technologies directly in the real-world environments of the project's pilots.
