Weather2X

The purpose of this project is to accommodate the demand for more accurate and detailed forecasts for power production, and more specifically, to make use of such improved forecasts for the optimization of hydrogen (P2X).

Project description

The consortium of Vattenfall, Ørsted, DMI, DTU, ENFOR and Energy Cluster Denmark aims at increasing accuracy of renewable power forecast by an ambitious 10%, and to utilize these improved production forecast in the optimization of P2X. This will result in decreased imbalance and cost of ancillary services and enable additional expansion of renewable energy. The project aims at including the whole value chain from metrological offices (DMI), power forecast companies (ENFOR) as well as renewable power production companies (Vattenfall and Ørsted) and P2X producers (Ørsted). The expected improvements are furthermore made possible by Vattenfall and Ørsted providing hitherto unshared wind and solar data to improve current weather models and develop novel power forecasts models with higher resolution and frequency customized to the current and future electricity markets.
