Abstract

The chapter delves into the strategic planning of Renewable Energy Communities (RECs) in intermediate areas, leveraging the case study of Fisciano, Italy. It begins by outlining the multifaceted benefits of RECs, including environmental, social, and economic advantages. The main focus is on the methodology proposed to identify priority areas for RECs, which involves creating maps that assess energy poverty and constraints. The Energy Poverty Map highlights areas with high energy consumption and low-income districts, while the Constraints Map identifies areas unsuitable for renewable energy installations. The integration of these maps results in a Priority Areas Map, which guides the optimal placement of RECs. The case study of Fisciano demonstrates the transferability of this methodology to intermediate contexts, while also underscoring the need for diverse incentives to ensure a fair and inclusive energy transition. The chapter concludes by discussing the potential future developments and implications of this approach for urban planning and sustainability.
