CIMAC WORLD CONGRESS 2019 - we are on!

Martin Greve, our Head of Product Management, will talk about “Advanced Virtual Power Plants optimizing Gas engine revenue” at CIMAC Congress 2019 on Wednesday, 12th June, in the first technical session from 09:00 - 10:30 am in Ballroom B.

The way gas engine power plants are operated in Europe will change dramatically in the near future. Many biogas or CHP power plants will require significant modification in order to participate effectively in the new smart energy markets. Germany has managed to raise the share of renewable energy sources in the gross electrical energy consumption from 6.3 % in 2000 to 36.2 % in 2017. In order to meet the ambitious climate protection targets, a further step-up to a share of 55 % is planned until 2035.

The strong volatility of solar and wind power already limits this development calling for technical solutions to store excessive energy during the course of the day or even seasonally. A better alternative is the synchronization of decentralized energy production and energy consumption in a smart energy market. We show how Gas engines utilized in Advanced Virtual Power Plants will play an important role in this concept.

You want to know more about the flexible possibilities Virtual Power Plants offer? Come to our traditional GETtogether on Wednesday 12th, at 5 pm, booth n° 321 and discuss this and other topics in a relaxed atmosphere enjoying cold draft beer with us.
