The proposal for a revised EU-directive on renewable energy (RED II) addresses self-consumption and renewable energy communities. More information about the development and effects of distributed electricity production and self-consumption in the Nordics (including non-EU countries Iceland and Norway) will be useful to governments and stakeholders. Negotiations on the amendment of the Renewable Energy Directive (RED) indicate that member states may have to report on self-consumption. The study could, in part, guide possible future reporting requirements.
The Nordic Council of Ministers is funding this project.
