Abstract
This research is about the current roles of the provinces, the municipalities, the local energy initiatives and their representative associations and how these current roles compare to what the bottom-up initiatives (the local energy initiatives and their representative associations) desire. The provinces and municipalities fulfil a predominantly facilitating role. The representative associations often fulfil a connecting and supporting role, whereas the local energy initiatives mainly take care for local support. There are some identified barriers which need to be tackled in order to achieve the desired situation according to the bottom-up initiatives. A distinction is made between political barriers, support barriers, participation barriers and barriers of vague roles. It is argued that a program-based focus and more collaboration could solve the participation barriers and the barriers of vague roles, and more centralised measures could deal with the political- and support barriers.
