Abstract
Energy Communities and different forms of self-consumption, as introduced by the European Union's ‘Clean energy for all Europeans package’, may become an important elements of future energy systems. Their acceptance and implementation will importantly depend on their transposition into member states' national law. In this paper, we investigate the ongoing national transpositions, in particular regarding their integration in the electricity network structure and related grid tariffs. As an example, we focus on the corresponding draft laws in Austria, and undertake a comparison with other EU member states. Actual implementations may be either supported or hampered by details of the legal framework. Accompanying support measures necessarily need to take the national structure of the energy system into account.
