In accordance with the goal approved by the Council of the European Union, a European climate-neutrality must be achieved by 2050. Namely, the European Union must significantly reduce greenhouse gas emissions and find ways to compensate for the remaining and unavoid- able ones. Within the framework of the European Green Deal, which is a set of policy initia- tives to achieve climate neutrality goals, energy communities are considered in the context of two initiatives: a just transition and clean and safe energy at an affordable price. Within the latter, energy community is seen as citizen-led actions in the energy sector that will help pave the way for the transition to clean energy.
