dc.description.abstract | Decentralized and small-scale forms of organization are reappearing in Spanish’s energy system.
Co-operatives have a social approach based on three dimensions: the purpose of the initiative, the
form of organization and ownership, and embeddedness. In this paper, we apply this analytical
framework to twelve energy co-operatives in Spain. These collectively owned organizations are
energy-marketing communities, and they have specific objectives: These are an ecological
objective (to reduce energy consumption and generate renewable energy) and a social objective
(to propose an alternative to the reality of the energy market and citizen empowerment). Energy
co-operatives in Spain have been typified as social enterprises, and these social enterprises have
experience in common energy service, with which they may mark their future role in local energy
communities. These results show the consolidation of energy co-operatives as a sign of the
maturity of Spanish society in the face of energy challenges. | es |
