Optimal designs of small CHP plants in a market with fluctuating electricity prices (2005)
Combined Heat and Power production (CHP) are essential for implementation of the climate change response objectives in many countries. In an introduction period, small CHP plants have typically been offered fixed electricity prices, but in many countries, such pricing conditions … Continue reading
Management of surplus electricity-production from a fluctuating renewable-energy source (2003)
Link to the Journal Paper Renewable-energy sources and energy efficiency are important elements in Danish Energy Policy. The implementation of wind power and combined heat- and power production (CHP) have already led to substantial fuel savings, and both technologies are … Continue reading
The effectiveness of storage and relocation options in renewable energy systems (2008)
Link to the Journal Paper Across the world, energy planners and transmission system operators are faced with decisions on how to deal with challenges associated with high penetration levels of intermittent energy resources and combined heat and power (CHP). At … Continue reading
Integration of renewable energy into the transport and electricity sectors through V2G (2008)
Link to the Journal Paper Large-scale sustainable energy systems will be necessary for substantial reduction of CO2. However, large-scale implementation faces two major problems: (1) we must replace oil in the transportation sector, and (2) since today’s inexpensive and abundant … Continue reading
Large-scale integration of wind power into different energy systems (2005)
The paper presents the ability of different energy systems and regulation strategies to integrate wind power. The ability is expressed by the following three factors: the degree of electricity excess production caused by fluctuations in wind and Combined Heat and … Continue reading
A 100% Renewable Energy Strategy for Denmark (2007)
This paper discusses the perspective of renewable energy (wind, solar, wave and biomass) in the making of strategies for a sustainable development. Such strategies typically involve three major technological changes: energy savings on the demand side, efficiency improvements in the … Continue reading
Large-scale integration of optimal combinations of PV, wind and wave power into the electricity supply (2006)
This article presents the results of analyses of large-scale integration of wind power, photo voltaic (PV) and wave power into a Danish reference energy system. The possibility of integrating Renewable Energy Sources (RES) into the electricity supply is expressed in … Continue reading
Integrated transportation and energy sector CO2 emission control strategies (2006)
This paper analyses the mutual benefits of integrating strategies for future energy and transport CO2emissions control. The paper illustrates and quantifies the mutual benefits of integrating the transport and the energy sector in the case of Denmark. Today this issue … Continue reading
Electric grid stability and the design of sustainable energy systems (2005)
Link to the Journal Paper Today, in most countries, electricity is produced either on hydropower or on large steam turbines on the basis of fossil fuels or nuclear power. Electricity from distributed generation constitutes only small amounts. Until now, the … Continue reading
Excess electricity diagrams and the integration of renewable energy (2003)
This article presents a methodology of showing the rate of integration of specific renewable energy sources (RESs) into the electricity supply system. The methodology is used on large-scale integration of wind, photo voltaic and wave power into a future Danish reference … Continue reading
