The Energy Sharing model described by White Energy combines photovoltaic generation, remote self-consumption and incentives on shared energy. ## Remote self-consumption between company sites Remote self-consumption allows companies to produce renewable energy at one site, for example through a photovoltaic system, and consume it at other company sites, provided that the production and consumption points are connected to the same primary substation. The page describes a primary substation as an electrical station that distributes energy within a defined area by transforming it from high to medium voltage. The model is presented as a way to: - reduce long-term energy costs; - stabilize energy prices; - make use of unused surfaces, including warehouse roofs owned by third parties; - generate economic benefits for the company and the local community. ## Energy Sharing service In the Energy Sharing model, electricity generated by a photovoltaic plant of up to **1 MWp** and fed into the grid is valued at the **hourly zonal price (PZO)** when the production and consumption sites are under the same primary substation. If a second company site withdraws electricity during the same hour, the **GSE recognizes an incentive for 20 years** on the shared energy, with a benefit of up to **€121/MWh**. At least **55% of the shared energy** must go to third parties, such as social or non-profit entities, generating environmental and social benefits for the local area. White Energy states that its Energy Sharing service helps companies optimize production and self-consumption through advanced configurations. ### How the model is described - Electricity is produced by photovoltaic systems, including systems installed on third-party roofs. - Produced electricity is shared and consumed instantaneously by other company sites connected to the same primary substation. - The model uses the public grid while maintaining ownership and control of the generated energy. ## Intended sectors The page highlights several types of energy-intensive businesses that may use remote self-consumption: - **Chemical and petrochemical companies:** medium and large businesses can use renewable electricity for energy-intensive processes, reducing costs and environmental impact. - **Textile companies:** businesses with energy-intensive plants and continuous production cycles can use remote self-consumption to improve overall energy efficiency. - **Manufacturing companies:** businesses with multiple operating sites can share electricity generated by photovoltaic systems, optimize renewable-energy use and reduce dependence on the grid. - **Food companies:** large food-industry businesses, including dairy, confectionery and meat companies, can use remote self-consumption for production and conservation processes, improving sustainability and reducing energy costs. ## Case studies ### Energy-intensive company in Lazio The page describes an energy-intensive company in Lazio that installed **two 1 MWp photovoltaic plants** on third-party land. Exposure and inclination were optimized to maximize production, stated as **1,340 kWh/kWp**. **Configuration:** electricity from the two photovoltaic plants is shared with the industrial site, which is located within the same primary substation, through a remote self-consumption system. **Benefits reported on the page:** - elimination of expenditure for electricity purchased from the grid; - a 20-year incentive on shared energy; - reduced emissions and improved ESG rating. ### Manufacturing company with three sites in Lazio A manufacturing company with three operating sites in Lazio, all connected to the same primary substation, invested in self-generation and energy sharing through photovoltaic systems installed on its own building roofs. Generation is concentrated on a site with large available roof surfaces but low energy consumption, such as a warehouse, so that more of the generated electricity can be shared with the other two more energy-intensive sites. **Configuration:** photovoltaic systems are installed on company-owned roofs, while connection to the same primary substation enables electricity sharing among the more energy-intensive sites. **Benefits reported on the page:** - optimized self-consumption across multiple production sites; - access to the 20-year incentive on shared energy; - reduced energy expenditure for energy-intensive sites; - improved ESG rating through a sustainable and replicable self-consumption model. ## Frequently asked questions ### What is remote self-consumption? It is the possibility for the same legal entity to produce renewable energy at one site and use it at other sites when they are connected to the same primary substation. ### What benefits does it offer? The page states that it provides a 20-year incentive on shared energy, which can be combined with the benefits of self-generation, together with environmental value. ### What is required to activate remote self-consumption? The involved sites must be identified and their connection to the same primary substation must be verified. ### Who can benefit most? The page identifies energy-intensive companies with multiple plants or production sites distributed across the territory that want to optimize renewable-energy use and reduce dependence on the grid. ## Related links - [Request Energy Sharing / contact White Energy](https://weeg.it/contact/) - [Chemical and pharmaceutical sector](https://weeg.it/soluzioni-energetiche-per-settori-aziendali/settore-chimico-farmaceutico/) - [Textile sector](https://weeg.it/soluzioni-energetiche-per-settori-aziendali/settore-tessile/) - [Manufacturing sector](https://weeg.it/soluzioni-energetiche-per-settori-aziendali/settore-manifatturiero/) - [Food sector](https://weeg.it/soluzioni-energetiche-per-settori-aziendali/settore-alimentare/)
