Energy communities (ECs) play a major role in energy systems by enabling decentralized production and distribution of renewable energy. This article applies business process modeling to enhance and align the business models of various EC members. Using Business Process Model and Notation (BPMN), it maps the operational workflows of key participants, including prosumers, storage owners, EV charging stations, aggregators, and entities involved in Local Energy Markets (LEM) and Local Flexibility Markets (LFM). Proposed BPMN models provide a structured perspective on essential tasks, decision points, and interactions within the energy market, capturing processes such as energy forecasting, trading, flexibility transactions and daily operations. Through process visualization, the models offer valuable insights for optimizing energy usage, enhancing grid stability and maximizing economic benefits. This approach highlights BPMN's capability to support more efficient, sustainable, and resilient ECs within decentralized systems. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
