Advantages

For Community Managers

• Intelligent energy management through centralized control of energy flows and optimized distribution of collective benefits.

• A scalable and replicable model that supports the expansion of energy communities into new regions, fostering sustainable growth and local empowerment.

• Promotion of sustainability through tools that enable transparent reporting of environmental impacts and effective communication of achieved results.

• Reducing manual workload through the automation of administrative processes and streamlined interactions with stakeholders.

• Ensuring transparency and traceability by making every operation trackable and accessible for verification or audit purposes.

• Enabling new business models through integration with commercial offerings, ESG frameworks, and ancillary services.

For Community Members (Consumers and Prosumers)

• Lowering energy costs through access to shared renewable energy sources, resulting in reduced utility bills for community members.

• Generating income through participation in incentive schemes for shared and grid-injected renewable energy.

• A dedicated user portal that allows each community member to monitor their energy consumption and track the benefits they have gained over time.

• Simplified onboarding process with a guided path that allows users to join the community easily, without bureaucratic hurdles.

• Promoting energy awareness through educational tools that help users understand their consumption patterns and adopt more efficient behaviors.

• Active engagement in sustainability through direct contribution to the ecological transition of the local area.

For Local Authorities and the Territory

• Promoting renewable energy through a practical tool that empowers the implementation of local energy policies.

• Improving air quality by reducing the use of fossil fuels and cutting harmful emissions.

• Promoting energy inclusion by engaging vulnerable citizens and supporting fair access to clean and affordable energy.

• Fostering local economic development by generating value through green supply chains and the employment of specialized labor.

• Data-driven energy governance supported by territorial indicators to guide public planning and decision-making.

• Fostering innovation and territorial attractiveness by enabling investments and pilot projects in the fields of smart cities and energy communities.

Key Features

Simulation of Energy Performance

Neta allows the simulation of the energy performance of the Energy Community based on the production and consumption curves of individual PODs (Points of Delivery), over a one-year time horizon. Once the PODs are configured, the consumption and production data are analyzed to:

  • estimate the shared energy;
  • calculate the economic incentive granted to the community throughout the year.

The system highlights:

  • Applicable incentive tariffs;
  • Energy indicators: energy produced, self-consumed, fed into the grid, withdrawn, consumed, and shared;
  • Environmental indicators: CO₂ saved, tons of oil equivalent (TOE) saved, and equivalent number of trees.

Incentive Allocation

The platform calculates and distributes economic incentives among the members of the community, based on configurable algorithms, such as weighted allocation that considers each POD’s contribution to energy sharing.

Calculation simulation: allows for a preliminary calculation to verify consistency with expected results.

Manager Dashboard

An intuitive and navigable interface provides the Manager with a comprehensive and detailed view of the communities:

  • Monitoring of energy production and consumption, both individual and collective.
  • Generation of strategic indicators to support Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).
  • Drill-down functionality to access the configuration of members and associated contributors.
