Rødovre Municipality is helping to stabilise the power grid through Scangrid's virtual power plant. Is your municipality ready to make a difference for the grid?

Rødovre Municipality is leading the way, showing how you can help stabilise the power grid while keeping local facilities running efficiently.

Rødovre Municipality has chosen to join our virtual power plant, where it actively helps stabilise the power grid through intelligent control of energy consumption in the municipality's facilities — without affecting operations.

The partnership in practice

In close dialogue with the technical staff, our solution was easily integrated into the ice rink's existing building management system (BMS). The municipality set all the parameters itself, such as temperature and humidity limits, and we monitor the system continuously to ensure optimal operation.

The ice rink runs as always, without users or technical staff noticing any changes. Since June, Rødovre Municipality has been part of our virtual power plant, automatically receiving quarterly statements and compensation — all without having to set aside extra resources.

A big thank you to Mohammad K. for being a steady anchor throughout the process and for making sure Rødovre Municipality decided to help stabilise the power grid and thereby contribute to a future with a more sustainable energy supply.

How can other municipalities take part?

Rødovre Municipality has taken the step with its ice rink, but there are many more facilities that can help stabilise the power grid. For example:

  • Swimming pools and outdoor pools (pumps, saunas, etc.)
  • Greenhouses (e.g. at vocational schools)
  • Educational institutions with heat pumps
  • Car parks with intelligent lighting control

The virtual power plant is tailored to the municipality's needs, and there is no risk of disruption to day-to-day operations — everything happens automatically and is controlled according to the municipality's parameters.

Are you ready to take the step?

Rødovre Municipality is now actively contributing to a more sustainable energy system. Will your municipality be the next to join? Let's have a no-obligation chat about how your facilities can become part of the solution.

Flexible energy is the future.Are you in?

Together we'll work out how you can become part of the virtual power plant — and, if you like, arrange a free screening of your equipment.
