Abstract: Abstract Interaction of energy cooperatives is analysed based upon three different case studies. The case study analysis shall reveal whether and how energy cooperatives may support new patterns of rules and resources, which impact they have at the local level and how they achieved an influential position within their focus region. The chosen cases are relevant because they are typical and powerful examples of the whole enterprise community. Each of them stands for one of the three dominant collaborative interaction models that are preferred by 72% of renewable energy production cooperatives in order to do business. In addition each of the three cases belongs to the biggest German energy production cooperatives, regarding members and total capital. The typical case character ensures that results can be related to the whole organisational network. Their powerful character demonstrates how actor empowerment takes place within the community and sheds light on aligned potentials, challenges and pre-conditions. The cases were identified during the quantitative assessment. Figure 7.1 displays how each case study is analysed in the following.
