Central Characteristics of Energy Communities and Their Interactions
Representation of the central characteristics of energy communities (ECs) and their interrelationships. A strong mutual influence is found between the actors of the EC and the management and decision-making processes, as well as between the actors and value propositions. Influences during the founding process occur between value propositions and founding actors, value propositions and the initiation mode, and founding actors on the initiation mode, funding options, and management and decision-making. Operational influences include the impact of value propositions on the management of energy resources and general management and decision-making, as well as the influence of the initiation mode on management and decision-making, and of funding options on the management of energy resources.

Analysis of Gender and Diversity Factors in Relation to Energy Consumption Flexibility
The graphic provides an overview of the approach to the quantitative analysis of household flexibility and the conclusions derived from it. Electricity consumption, recorded via smart meters, was combined with diversity dimensions and associated aspects such as gender, household structure, income, and available technologies. Treatments implemented during field tests, such as tariff reductions for peak load reductions, were documented in the dataset. Quantitative methods, including F-tests or Levene's test for variance, regression analysis, and plots of average consumption, were used to gain insights into consumption patterns and identify diversity-specific differences. Building on these findings, data quality criteria for future research were formulated, and a stronger inclusion of diverse user groups in demand-side management (DSM) programs was recommended.

Visualisation of TCPs
After selecting a topic (in this example "Electricity transmission and distribution" was selected), this graph shows all tasks (activities) focussing on the selected topic. The topics are structured according to the IEA energy RD&D budget/expenditure statistics. Additionally, you can see the related Technology Collaboration Programmes (TCPs). Activities which had been ongoing in Summer 2020 from all IEA-TCPs are covered in this analysis. You can re-arrange the different bubbles to better meet the needs of your analysis. If a TCP consists of more than one task (activity), it also contains one entry in the database labelled “ExCo-Activities”.
