Abstract

Public managers, policy advisors, and sustainability professionals operating at local, regional, and national levels will find this article useful for designing and implementing effective, participatory governance models. The article provides a practical roadmap for integrating public value co-creation (PVCC) into strategic public management (SPM), showcasing its application through energy communities (ECs) in rural Italian municipalities. By leveraging the public value scorecard (PVSC), this research offers a structured approach to assess economic, social, and environmental impacts while ensuring stakeholder engagement and financial sustainability. Practitioners in public administration, urban planning, community development, and sustainability management can apply these insights to replicate EC models in diverse governance contexts. The authors highlight how collaborative governance transforms sustainability from a policy goal into a community-driven reality, fostering economic resilience and social cohesion. For those seeking innovative public sector strategies to achieve the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), this article provides actionable frameworks that align local initiatives with global objectives.
