註釋 Alternative and innovative solutions designed to intensify the transition towards a more sustainable and inclusive economy have recently become a major issue for multiple industries. Independent community management of renewable energies resources and infrastructures, represents for the energy industry one of the potential options that could contribute to this process. Such type of practices however, are becoming rare and dont seem to be able to achieve the large scale success which they would need to make the difference in the energy industry. In this direction, the emancipation of consumers from the energy market is hindered by a series of context-related barriers including: lack of financial resources; public governance inefficiencies; inaccurate community engagement strategies; and consumers cognitive deficiencies. Through the analysis and investigation over specifically chosen case studies, it was possible to identify some critical risk factors, connected to each particular barrier, which are preventing to community-centric renewable energies projects to achieve successful and long lasting improvements in terms of sustainable and inclusive development. Among these we would have to include: poor technical and management skills; unfavorable commercial environment; weather instabilities; scarce information quality; political instability; corruption; human rights repression; asymmetry of information; social conflict; underestimation of an early engagement strategy. The examples considered for the analysis referred to: The project of Community charging stations in rural Sierra Leone; The unexploited biomass potential of the river Hernad valley, in rural Hungary; The community engagement experience related to a large wind park investment in King Island (Australia); The public governance role in CDM investment distribution in India.
