Effective governance models for energy data are essential to support Europe's strategic objectives in data sharing, trust, and interoperability. Building on initiatives like the Data Governance Act and the European Data Strategy, the ENERSHARE project develops a Data Space for the energy sector, introducing comprehensive Governance Models to address complex data-sharing requirements. This paper outlines eight interconnected models for managing energy-related data from metering, consumption, generation, and distribution systems across diverse contexts. These models emphasize security, compliance, data portability, and stakeholder lifecycle management, forming a robust framework for transparent and secure data exchange. Driven by a gap analysis of existing frameworks and structured surveys with key stakeholders, this approach reflects current needs while aligning with European regulations and fostering market innovation. By supporting both decentralized and centralized architectures, the Governance Models foster collaboration among TSOs, DSOs, data providers, and energy communities, ensuring data integrity, trust, and strategic progress.
