Description

Prosumerism can help the energy end users achieve energy ownership. The stakeholders can decide what to do with the energy they produce. It helps them take part in energy selling and procuring and also provides them with the choice of whom to buy from and at what price. The export of excess energy can also be done at prices they deem suitable for themselves. Energy prosumerism is expected to emerge one of the most prominent trends from modern energy infrastructure.
