A biogas plant is a flexible all-rounder!
Flexibilisation pays off:
Additional potential yield!
High levels of flexibilisation are key to sustainable,
long-term operation
Short term: good rate of return on investment
Long term: good prospects indicated by renewable energies legislation
Flexibilisation allows a step-by-step approach
Planning sequence
• Flex Analysis provides the basis for decisions on future concepts
• Feasibility of using the heat energy? Local council, cooperative?
• Detailed design, cost estimate, decision
• Approvals design: Public electricity supply connection, pollution control (BImSch) and major accident legislation (StörfallVO)
• Financing
Investment project
• Addition of a CHP + transformer, extended gas storage (if necessary)
• Heating network: build new or extend, buffer storage
• Commissioning
• Confirmation of installed capacity by an environmental certification engineer
• Claim flexibility premium from the power grid operator + federal network agency (BNetzA)
Schedule operation
• Automatised schedule operation – electricity market
