Encouraging cooperative energy generation

INNAX Group is a multidisciplinary sustainable building management company, with multiple offices. Innax regularly acts as an Energy Service Company, or ESCo, which can take care of both the investment in sustainable installations and their management and maintenance. The goal is to have buildings with low energy consumption and optimal indoor climate. INNAX regularly works with housing corporations and large building owners to set up solar cooperatives. This allows social tenants, for example, or residents in a specific zip code area to easily invest in sustainable electricity through this kind of a solar rooftop initiatives.

Cooperative energy generation

The government wants to encourage sustainable, cooperative energy generation. Initially, this was done through the zip codes. This was a tax scheme where participants in such projects received a partial refund of their energy tax. Since April 2021, the this scheme has changed to a subsidy scheme, the Subsidy for Cooperative Energy Generation or SCE.

Our contribution

For Innax, we keep track of regulatory developments. We list the arguments for increasing the budget and call attention to unintended, negative side effects of the scheme. Our efforts so far resulted in a smoother transition between the old and current rules. We have also been able to support chamber members in formulating chamber questions. Partly due to our efforts, the budget for the SCE was increased significantly in 2022.
