Electra Energy Services

Since 2016, Electra Energy has been working to build an ecosystem of services and stakeholders to service the energy communities growth in Greece.

Policy and advocacy

Electra Energy supports the energy transition to a decentralised, renewable, efficient, clean and sustainable energy system with citizens at its core. We work providing consultancy and advocacy to improve our policies towards the building up of the local communities

Projects development

Integrating development services for community energy projects: early planning and business modelling, contracting consultancy, RES permitting and financial management. We work for the creation of an Energy Communities experts ecosystem, where knowledge and services are shared and exchanged among communities and stakeholders in order to support the growth of energy communities

Community investments

We assess and promote alternative financing mechanisms and resources aligned with the principles of the social and local economy. Electra Energy is member of Rescoop.eu federation, we aim to foster  international collaboration between energy co-ops and at the same time allow them to scale-up the size of individual investments

In 2019, Electra Energy have supported two energy cooperative suppliers in Spain and participated in their projects and investments: EOLPOP Community Wind Farm and SOM Energia Generation Kilowatt hour

From March 2017 Electra Energy Cooperative is one of the Participant Entities in the citizenship’s wind power project of EOLPOP SL!

A participation of Electra of 1 share = 700 € (to generate 1,000 kWhs/year, for 20 years)  Joining the project “Living the air of the sky (viure de l’aire)”, which promotes the installation of an Enercon E-103 EP2 wind turbine of 2,35MW in the rural town of Pujalt (Anoia, Catalunya, Spain).

Viure del Aire is first community wind project in Spain. The project is located in Pujalt, close to Barcelona. Although the wind turbine does not benefit from any subsidies or a feed-in premium, Som Energia pushed through. The project is financed by Viure de l’Aire del Cel, a cooperative owned by Eolpop. Som Energia provided Viure del Aire with a EUR 1 million loan so that it could get the wind turbine operational. After raising the funds from local citizens, the loan will be paid back. Have a look at the website of Eolpop to learn more about this community-owned wind project.

From October 2018, Electra Energy Cooperative is one of the members of the energy cooperative SOM Energia

As a non-profit cooperative Som Energia started selling green energy from existing sources in October 2011. It is energy bought from the market and sold to the members. Meanwhile, the cooperative is developing  their own cost-effective renewable energy projects to produce energy for the members. Som Energia is the biggest energy cooperative in Spain producing and supplying electricity to more than 50,000 clients and cooperative members. Since last October, we are proud to be members of the cooperative and to promote the supply model in Greece.
