The LECo-project shall respond on the needs of remote communes and settlements for a sustainable energy supply. For this purpose an approach shall be developed to use as far as possible existing renewable resources for the energy supply improving building stock standards by combining new innovative technologies with locally available natural resources. The approach is based on the model of local cycle economy taking also in consideration the use of waste from households, agriculture and industries as potential source of energy. In order to create synergetic effects to the local economy and social coherence it is intended to base the project on Local Energy Communities (LECo) either as municipal enterprise or as a cooperative. As far as available local companies shall be involved in investments and thus upgrade their skills for future activities in the energy business. The project shall deliver a set of locally adapted concepts for Community based energy solutions in remote areas. These concepts will be modelled, developed and implemented in selected test communities in each participating country. The methodology for setting up such local adapted concepts and their implementation will be made available in form of a practical guideline which can be used for transferring the results to other locations. With help of the German project partner Renewable Energies Agency the project will learn from good practices of the German and Austrian “energy villages”, which by implementing smart energy solution successfully created added regional value, jobs and contributed to climate protection. The concepts will be analysed, adapted and tested in pilot communities in the project region. Further existing cases of Energy Villages inside and outside the NPA area will be analyzed in form of documented cases and shall deliver guidance about success- factors and pitfalls for Energy Villages.
