Subscription Research Services
Our yearly subscription research services
focus on a particular area of the new energy
transition. They allow clients to fully
understand the areas of new energy their
business is focused on, and future market
direction.
Whether you’re a smart home provider
looking for the next market to target or a
network company needing to keep up to date
with the developing flexibility market, we’ll
find the relevant services for you.
Ad hoc support from our team of energy
experts is also included.
Consultancy
Delta-EE’s consultancy team provides clients
with bespoke confidential research and
insight to answer the critical questions that
are impacting their business.
Where subscription research services provide
an overarching view of the energy transition,
for more specific needs – and to take a
deeper dive into the opportunities and
challenges the energy transition creates for
your business – our consultancy team can
help.
Delta-EE enables organisations to develop the best strategies, business models and customer
propositions for the energy transition. We do this, depending on clients’ needs, through our
subscription research services and bespoke consultancy projects requested by clients.

A combination of triggers and drivers can explain the
scale of interest for energy communities
9
Triggers are intervening events,
such as the two directives from
the Clean European Package.
Drivers are long-time processes
that change the environmental
structure of an energy
community
◼ Climate change emergency,
◼ Decentralised generation
◼ Development of flexibility
markets,
◼ Subsidies phase-out,
◼ Development of technologies

Development of energy communities across Europe is not
homogeneous - Belgium is a market leader

We are seeing four energy community business models
1. Generation/export
2. Co-operative energy supplier
3. Collective self-consumption
4. Virtual allocation (P2P)
◼All energy communities strive
to interface with value
streams
◼Virtual allocation and
bounded systems also seek
optimisation and
self/collective consumption
12

Value ‘stream’ from the community perspective.

Asset optimisation

Resilience
Interface with system values
Energy communities bring a range of
benefits to third parties:
◼ Increased flexibility
◼ Membership fees
◼ Energy savings

Value generation within energy communities and long term
viability differ depending on the business model

A collective self-consumption scheme run by incumbent energy supplier, with the
collaboration of the local municipality.
Generation
Roof top PV Battery
23.7kWp 15kWh
The assets were installed by Engie
and sonnen at no cost and will be
paid back with energy savings
generated through the scheme
Partners:
-Smart meters and
gateways are provided
by Tiko
-Sonnen has installed
the communal
batteries
Energy Supplier
The assets where
provided through the
Engie Mypower offer
Engie also manages assets to
ensure best match between
production and consumption
