Energy Cooperative


Energy Co-operative (Co-operative Energy) - a type of co-operative whose goal is to produce energy for its own use and for sale. In recent years, due to the development of small-scale renewable energy technology, energy cooperatives are developing dynamically, for example in Germany, Denmark, France, Italy and the United Kingdom (Baywind Energy Co-operative). In the European Union, REScoop 20-20-20 has also been established, involving energy cooperation from 7 countries.

Energy Cooperatives in Poland Operational energy cooperatives

The first and so far the only functioning energy cooperative in Poland is the Cooperative of Our Energy, which was set up on the initiative of the Zamość company Bio Power sp. z o.o. and four municipalities from Zamość County, namely Komarów-Osada, Sitno, Skierbieszów and Labun. The Co-operative started its activity in June 2014, and as planned by its creators by the end of 2020, will complete the construction of the largest autonomous power sector in Europe.

Our Energia Cooperative intends to build an autonomous energy district based on renewable sources, which through its own power supply system will supply electricity to consumers in the form of households and communal utility buildings. Energy co-operatives in Polish law

The energy cooperative is not known in Polish law, as in Germany, energy cooperatives are called for the function they fulfill. Cooperatives operate in Poland on the basis of cooperative law, which does not provide for restrictions on the scope of the cooperative business activity. As a result, the cooperative model is not required to operate in the field of civil energy.
