On the 12th/13th of November 2025, Project Partners met in Lyon for the forth Consortium meeting to discuss results and visit pilots, hosted by AURA-EE.
On the first day the meeting was held in Die, outside the city of Lyon, to give Partners the opportunity to meet Dwatts, one of the Pilot related to the Partner AURA-EE. Parters had the chance to meet the local actors, visit the site and analyse the energy interventions and the business model applied to finance it.
The meeting focused on achievements and issues related to WP2 – Design and validation of a replicable integrated service model; the focal point of the discussion was the Integrated toolbox and an inventory handbook to be released in the next months, providing an overview of best tools for the implementation of energy communities. As far as WP4 is concerned (Identifying and addressing regulatory barriers through specific recommendations for policy makers), Partners exchanged information and discussed the policy recommendations status per country with the results achieved at regional and national level. During the session dedicated to WP 5 – Sustainability, replication and exploitation of project results, the Partners shared the successes of the Territorial Forums organized in their countries. The meeting gave the Partners the chance to present their achievements in terms of legal, financial and technical support given to the pilots and to share struggles, difficulties and success stories. On the second day, back to Lyon, the Partners discussed the organization in 2026 of the Energy community Days and the Energy Meet Up in Italy which is expected for October – November 2026 as final event of the project.
