Europe’s Future Electricity Networks “SmartGrids”

• Development of a more flexible, accessible, reliable and economic electricity system

• Need for new solutions based on automation and ICT

• EU Technology Platform “SmartGrids”

– Area of strategic importance and need for special research focus

– Participation in advisory council as only Nordic representative

– Vision and strategic research agenda

SmartGrids Definition

“Electricity networks that can intelligently integrate the behavior and actions of all users connected to it - generators, consumers and those that do both – in order to efficiently deliver sustainable, economic and secure electricity supplies.”

EU Technology Platform for the Electricity of the Future

• A smart grid employs innovative products and services together with intelligent monitoring, control and communication technologies in order to:

– Better facilitate the connection and operation of generators of all sizes and technologies;

– Allow consumers to play a part in optimizing the operation of the system;

– Provide consumers with greater information and options for choice of supply;

– Significantly reduce the environmental impact of the whole electricity supply system;

– Maintain or even improve the existing high levels of system reliability, quality and security of supply;




Why Smart Grids?


• SmartGrids are a critical technology for efficient transformation of the energy system and solving of the climate challenges

• National and international priority

– EU SET-plan: “Intelligent electricity networks” is 1 of 7 crucial technology challenges

– DK: Smart Grids is crucial for operating an energy system wo. fossile fuels.

– DK: Part of govornment strategy

• Massive global investments and R&D-needs

– OECD: Need for doubling of energy infrastructure-investments to 500 billion DKK/year in 2025

– ENTSO-E: SmartGrids R&D-plan w. 31 specific R&D projekts for 2 mia. € with start 2010-13

– IEA: Actuel R&D level within SmartGrids only 10% of what is needed



Danish Government Energy Policy Targets towards 2050




Smart Grids in the Government Energy Strategy 2050

• ”the government will cooperate on a dissemination of smart grids in Denmark ...”

• ”the government will work for a doubling of the funding for research, development and demonstration within the energy field, and have large focus on the coming EU budget, especially for sustainable energy, smart grids and energy efficiency towards 2020 as compared to the present level”.

• “The government will actively support establishment of test environments for green solutions in Denmark …”

• Secure a sufficient intake of candidates and researchers for the green sector …”




Danish Energy Policy

• Fossil free energy system in 2050 / 100% renewable based

– Limit green house gas emissions

– Scare resources / increasing global energy demand

– Energy independency




The Danish Wind Power Case


Wind power covers the entire demand for electricity

in 200 hours (West DK)

In the future wind power will exceed demand

in more than 1,000 hours



Danish energy consumption has been stable over the last 25 years

Denmark as a Smart Grid Hub

• Within SmartGrids DK has potential for an international leading position, which can drive a large green growth (jobs and export)

– Unique energy system (experience, data and knowledge)

– Substantial R&D-level

– Strong DK energy industry

– Consensus on strategy (government, industry, research)

• DI Green Growth: SmartGrids are 1 of 3 focus points
