This paper conducts an in-depth energy systems analysis on the role of thermal energy storages in Denmark's transition to a fully decarbonized Smart Energy System. Using the EnergyPLAN software and national-scale energy system scenarios, the research examines how the use and impact of thermal energy storages evolves during this transition.
Elsystemansvar A/S (subsidiary of Energinet) has asked Ea Energy Analyses to analyse the benefits and main drivers for the installation of storage units in the Danish power system. This will supplement the technology aspects in the recent Technology Catalogue on Energy Storage (DEA and Energinet, 2019).
Meanwhile, in Ballerum, Thisted, Copenhagen Energy and local distributor Thy-Mors Energi are developing a 100 MW solar-plus-storage project, diversifying Denmark's renewable mix. This initiative, part of a 2.6 GW storage pipeline, underscores the role of local partnerships in scaling clean energy.
As reported in Table 1, two significant storage demonstration projects were carried out in Denmark in the past years. The batteries installed in Nordhavn (Copenhagen) were tested mainly for the provision of primary regulation (TSO service) and peak shaving (DSO service).
