Energy Community
An Energy Community (EC) is a legal entity that is based on open and voluntary participation, is autonomous and is effectively controlled by partners or members. Located next to the renewable energy projects, whose projects are owned and developed by it.
Its partners or members are natural persons, SMEs, or local authorities, including municipalities. The primary purpose is to provide environmental, economic, or social benefits to its partners or members or to the local areas where it operates, rather than financial gain

What services do we offer to energy communities?
1
Team Build
It defines a good motor group, summoned from the citizens, from the local administration and/or from the businesses in the area. We offer you both technical support and different services focused on facilitating decision-making.
Initial Advice
Interview and initial diagnosis with the motor group: The objective is to detect the specific needs to propose the itinerary. It can be face-to-face and/or online. After the interview, the training need and format are assessed.

Constitution
We work with entities specialized in accompanying and mediating associative projects that will help you find the most appropriate legal form for your community; as well as to solve step by step the administrative needs associated with this process.

Goal setting and Scope
In this step, the energy project to be addressed will be defined and will end with the presentation of the Technical Project. We offer you the necessary support and services to be able to assess the solutions that best suit the needs of the project.
Technical Advice I
Meetings will be held to define the appropriate energy solution. The necessary documentation will be prepared to visualize the data that will help you define the final project:
- Sizing according to chosen space
- Study of up to 3 simulations of possible distributions according to interested profiles
- Budget estimate
- Step-by-step integration pre-report (Installation explanation, equipment proposal, necessary documentation)
Final documentation
Pre-sizing Study
Simulation reports: Productions, Consumptions & Savings
Budget Report
Integration Report
Technical Advice II
Once you have defined the number of people who will be part of the CE and after having assessed the distribution possibilities, we offer you the final reports on the operation and savings of your installation.
- Consumption record of the participants
- Consumption study (real profiles)
- Partition Coefficients Report
Through the study of these data and its comparison with the production forecast of the facility, it will be possible to provide savings estimates adjusted to real forecasts..

Installation and Integration
In order to make the final decision regarding materials and final budget, we must be clear about what economic possibilities we have. We advise you and even manage applications for aid and subsidies. Once your installation has been chosen, ENDEF offers you both the installation service and the construction management service.
Execution of the installation
Team of installers specialized in solar energy and experts in self-consumption. We work with leading brands in terms of technology, always adapting to your expectations and needs. We also guarantee transparency and commitment throughout the entire installation process.
We also offer you the possibility of working with local installers and that ENDEF performs the construction management.

Why choose us to set up an energy Community?
Leaders in residential self-consumption in Aragon
We have been working for more than 10 years with the objective of bringing solar energy into the hands of people. With the appearance of shared self-consumption, the capacity of solar to reach Aragonese homes multiplies and at ENDEF we focus on making it a reality.
Close, close and trustworthy company
We study projects according to real needs and offer transparent and simple information. Our multidisciplinary team is in charge of the entire process, accompanying you before, during and after installation.
