Coordinated Operation of Integrated Energy System (CORE)

The COPE project will provide a cost efficient and secure solution for the design and operation of
100% renewable based energy systems with power to heat (P2H) and power to gas (P2G).
Project description
The project is to design the 100% renewable based Danish energy system with P2H and P2G, and
develop market framework and coordinated operation strategies for the renewable based integrated
energy system. The 100% renewables based Danish energy system with thermal and gas storage
will be designed in order to maximize the social welfare and improve the cost efficiency.
Significant energy storage technologies will be analyzed with specific focus on Danish potentials
for using P2G and thermal energy storage technologies in the overall energy system. The impact of
integration of electricity, heat, gas and transport sectors on the electric power system will be
studied and the flexibility and ramping requirements will be quantified to ensure secure and
reliable operation of the integrated system. A new market will be developed to ensure sufficient
flexibility and ramping capability in the integrated energy system. Optimal short term dispatch
strategies and online control will be developed to ensure the security of the whole system with the
least cost. The business models for renewable generation plants coupling with energy storage will
be developed. The developed energy system, market and coordination operation strategies will be
demonstrated by real time co-simulation in PowerLabDK.
