Dual focus in the PMFU-section: Environment and R&D

PSO R&D in environmentally friendly power production technologies is ForskEL

Environment is registration of the effects on the environment from the heat and power generation

Internal coordination of Energinet.dk’s in-house R&D is ForskIN

Research related to the gas transmission grid is ForskNG

Slogan time..

Unbundle the electricity sector

Unravel the grid

Unleash the renewable energy


A Smart Grid must develop from these principles:

Strong grid connections to allow for increased flow of electric power and energy from production to consumption, also across national borders

System services made deliverable from all grid connected generation capacity to secure system robustness

Establishing of a comprehensive communications architecture, to allow for regulation and monitoring of all generation and consumption

Smart utilisation of renewable energy. Especially solar, wind, waves and other fluctuating production must be regulated directly as well as indirectly via forecasts and planning

Intelligent regulation and increase of power consumption. Develop a realistic expectation of customer driven demand response and find the regional optimum for substitution of fossil generation capacity

Evolution of market products to support the smart grid development


What is a smart grid?

A smart grid can handle

embedded generation

high penetration of renewable energy (>50%)

customer driven demand response

It offers very high security of supply, with fully transparent energy prices

Smart grids tie the knot between electricity market economy and widely distributed ownership of generation infrastructure by mobilising demand response

The Energy forecast project

“The Energy forecast” with the spot market prices for the following day airs every evening right after the weather forecast on TV2-news at 19:30. It is then possible for families to rake the prices into account, to postpone a load of laundry until the night or turning off the floor heater a few hours when the price is high.
