Self-consumption in residential communities SOLUTIONS
If you’re interested in implementing photovoltaic self-consumption in residential communities, this article guides you step by step so your community can benefit from shared solar energy. Discover how this model works, its advantages, and how to plan an efficient installation tailored to the needs of all residents.
1. What is collective self-consumption?
This type of installation, in which several people share the savings generated by energy production for self-consumption, is called collective self-consumption.

2. Energy community
This model is increasingly being implemented in urban centers through the concept of energy communities, the main objective of which is for a group to benefit from energy generation facilities, efficiency improvement measures, or the development of sustainable mobility options.
3. A new aesthetic for buildings
If you’re considering this type of energy self-consumption project in a residential community, you’ve probably wondered how to do it.
To do so, it’s important to follow these steps:
Understand the advantages and operation of this type of installation, as well as the energy needs of the building and each of its residents.
Learn how electricity savings would be distributed among residents and how to communicate this with the supplier, as well as any regulatory limitations or the most appropriate self-consumption option for the building.
Understand the advantages and operation of this type of installation, as well as the energy needs of the building and each of its residents.
Establish a work schedule according to the needs of the neighborhood community.

What is photovoltaic self-consumption in residential communities?
It is a shared solar installation where several neighbors benefit from the energy generated to reduce electricity consumption and save on their bills.
Does the photovoltaic façade affect the aesthetics of the building?
It allows costs and benefits to be distributed among several users, optimizing production and promoting community sustainability.
How are energy and savings distributed among neighbors?
Distribution is carried out according to established agreements and regulations, taking into account individual consumption and the total production of the facility.
