Today (Nov-Dec 2011) Tomorrow (2020)
28 % wind power
50 % wind power
In the future wind power will exceed the entire demand of electricity in Denmark > 1,000 hours
EcoGrid EU meets the increasing need for balancing services
Wind power already covers the
entire demand of electricity in Denmark
in many hours

EU funded FP7-Energy project (total budget: 21 million €)
A large scale demonstration of a real-time marketplace for distributed energy resources (DER) starting in November 2012
ICT systems and innovative market solutions enable small consumers to offer TSOs additional and more efficient balancing services
A demonstration of a real power system with more than 50 % renewable energy
Preparation for a fast-track towards European real-time market operation of renewable energy sources and demand response

Bornholm – a Unique Test Site
Demonstration in a “real”
system with 50 % RES
Operated by the local
municipal owned
DSO, Østkraft
Interconnected with
the Nordic power Market
High variety of low
carbon energy sources
Several active
demand & stationary
storage options
Eligible RD&D
infrastructure & full
scale test laboratory
Strong political commitment
& public support

What is demonstrated on Bornholm?
EcoGrid EU is a full
scale demonstration
of a real-time market
place including a
Very broad mix of
distributed energy resources
36 MW Wind Power
16 MW CHP (biomass)
2 MW Biogas
2 MW Photovoltaic (solar)
Power Generation Demand side/Storage
”Intelligent” control of
household appliances
Electric Vehicles
Heat Pumps with Smart
Grids applications
Micro CHP
Electricity storage in
District Heating
Synergies with other Bornholm activities, e.g. EV roll-out and infrastructure demonstration (EDISON), heat pump roll-out program,
PV roll-out, demonstration of 200 smart heating/coolers (frequency) controllers

Widening the scope of the current power market systems with the EcoGrid RTM
12
• Demand of flexible consumption/production
• Volatility
• Balancing cost
Future Balancing Challenges
• Small scale end-users
• prosumers
Market Integration
• Small scale end-users can attain economic benefits
• TSOs get access to alternative balancing resources
Increase competition
The integration of the EcoGrid RTM enables direct control options on a very short time scale

An Additional Source of Regulation Capacity
The current system:
TSOs selecting/accepting bids for a certain quantity
Only large producers, large consumers and aggregated smaller units (min. 10 MW)
“Update” of loads every 15 minutes
14
The new real-time market:
No restriction on the size of units (MW)
Price set by TSOs every 5 minutes
Certain quantity of fast(er) response from smaller units
Development of a New ICT platform
New ICT challenges include:
Development of architectures that supports the EcoGrid EU concept
Management of large scale demonstration/deployment
Management of a multiple mix of small demand response units/small scale production/storage capabilities
15
Build on proven solutions where available:
Modern information technology (incl. commercial meters etc.)
End-user devices/appliances equipped with solutions demonstrated in other RD&D projects
Demonstration of other “real-time” market platforms outside Europe

Impacts: What is in it for Europe?
EcoGrid EU will not start from scratch:
Obvious synergies with other national and international RD&D projects
The EcoGrid EU partners participates in other relevant EU RD&D projects
18
EcoGrid EU partners bring in innovative and proven technology solutions and knowledge:
To be utilized in EcoGrid EU
To be shared with external stakeholders
Strong replication and dissemination efforts will ensure the development of an EcoGrid EU prototype real-time market that can be stepwise implemented in Europe:
Establishment of a Reference group with key stakeholders and experts from Europe
EcoGrid EU Replication road map
