Biogas balances energy system

Jeanne Moënne-Loccoz, Department of Electrical Engineering at the Technical University of Denmark, takes a second place in the Vissing Foundation’s Energy Prize 2021 for the dissertation: Assessment of the provision of frequency control by a biogas plant for the Bornholm power system.

 

Jeanne Moënne-Loccoz made an assessment of using a local biogas plant on Bornholm to balance the energy system which receives more and more renewable energy from fluctuating sources such as the sun and wind. She examined the technical as well as the financial aspects of using biogas for that purpose.
