The project developed probabilistic methods for optimum operation and planning of contemporary distribution systems. including probabilistic models for wind power. small-scale CHP plants and load.

This project will through experimental testing develop methods and procedures for the validation of the ability of Distributed Energy Resources (DER) to deliver system services to the electric power system satisfying the needs and requirements of the Transmission (TSO) and Distribution (DSO) System Operators. To achieve the overall energy policy targets an increased integration and coordination of distributed (mainly renewable) energy production facilities into the Danish energy systems is required. This integration shall comprise a large number of distributed, renewable energy sources.

SOSPO, focus is on how control of the power system, at transmission level, needs to be changed to meet the needs of stable and uninterrupted power, despite the fluctuating energy sources in the grid of the future. Technologies that today control the system and ensure a stable and reliable supply will be inadequate. Geographic and dynamic changes in production cause alterations as dynamic as nature. Existing controls are not built to this and the future power system will be vulnerable.

The purpose of the project is to generate hands-on experience of developing and operating a battery energy storage system in the renewable energy based power system of the future. During the project an efficient project team will develop and test a 600 kW/1,2 MWh energy storage, which will provide high value grid services

The project will introduce power producing elements to the SmartGrid implemented in the “Ec-oGrid.EU” project executed on Bornholm. The power producing elements will be based on fuel cell technology and will produce both electricity and heat for e.g. central/district heating. FCCHP units

Demonstrate and quantify the benefits of combining SGT with DG and LM and share this knowledge with stakeholders and decision makers in private and public sector. Develop the “SmartGen Models” which illustrates both energy resources and grid information visually by combining SGT scenarios with input from GIS and NIS.

The proposed projects is to develop and demonstrate the concept of ‘neighboring heating’ (i.e. heat supply to a cluster of 10-20 individual houses from a central plant) based on smart control of a heat pump in a combination with a hot water storage. where the possibilities of ‘tapping’ cheap electricity from the grid in periods with low electricity demand or/and high wind produc-tion are analyzed and demonstrated.

To describe and calculate a 'Danish business case for full Smart Grid dissemination' from a socio economical perspective.

This project is focusing on the electricity consumption of the agriculture on Samsø. The agricultures/farms are going to be active players in Smart Grids together with other manufacturing industries . In the future, the farms will have their own production of renewable energy which is of great importance for the success of the future Smart Grid.

To investigate different parameters which can optimize the operation of the distribution network on the basis of The Danish Energy Regulatory Authority's regulation of the distribution network companies in the form of financial regulation and regulation of the security of supply.
