The main goal of the paper I wrote with Piotr Mikusek was to identify an exemplary list of regulatory barriers that may slow down the development of energy communities.
We discuss these issues with the idea of a barrier register listing certain provisions (a “black list”) that should be excluded from legal practice. With this in mind, we discuss the types of problems that an energy community can face, offer examples of regulatory barriers affecting the development of community energy, and provide a proposal for solving regulatory barriers with the help of a register.
