This dataset describes the collective involvement of citizens in the energy transition with a focus on 2010-2021 across 29 countries in Europe. It is the first systematic data collection of its kind. Data are collected for the initiatives citizens are leading, fields of activities they engage in (e.g., installation of renewable capacities, operation of charging infrastructure for electric vehicles, engagement in energy education and services provision), number of people involved or being members, financial data of initiatives, and characteristics of production units planned, installed, operated and/or purchased by the initiatives.

more registered evidence than expected

Web search, interviews, e-mail, snowballing

Semi-structured

Data are collected in different countries which differ in legal context. Many countries are now in the transition of implementing the EU directives for energy communities which is why it can be expected that the number of initiatives and scope will increase even further in the future.

Extensive documentation [including comments, application of four eyes principle, linking to existing standards and ontologies where possible, e.g. schema.org, w3data]

Four eyes principle, execution of validation protocalls

Consistency checking (by humans and software tests)

Data collection and data uncertainty differs across countries, refer to the documentation for further information.
