Community energy project launched in Czechia

Starting on August 1, people interested in sharing electricity can register with the Electroenergetic Data Center (EDC) in Czechia, marking the beginning of community energy in this country. The EDC system allows for the registration and sharing of locally produced electricity. Full operations, including storage and aggregation services, are expected by mid-2026. Last year’s amendment to the energy law facilitates this by enabling electricity sharing within and between different locations. Households, municipalities, and businesses can participate in two regimes: active customer mode for up to 11 transfer points and energy communities for up to 1000 points within contiguous administrative areas.
