Denmark’s electricity system, right now
What Denmark is generating and trading with its neighbours, minute by minute, read from Energinet’s open data, with the reserve Energinet is calling on and today’s reserve prices. Energinet’s live data has no battery field, so the batteries cannot be seen in it.
Live · Energinet’s open data, read this minute
The last 24 hours
Reading the day.
Offshore wind, onshore wind, solar and the rest of Danish production, stacked, every five minutes over the last 24 hours, with net exports below the line. Energinet’s live figures are upscaled measurements and, it says, will carry errors that are not corrected; its settled figures come later.
The cables
Reading the interconnectors.
Flow on each link this minute, imports to the right and exports to the left, in megawatts: West Denmark (DK1) to Germany, the Netherlands, Great Britain, Norway and Sweden, the Great Belt link between the two zones, where to the right is power flowing from East into West Denmark, and East Denmark (DK2) to Germany and Sweden. Energinet’s own sign: positive is import.
aFRR, called now
Reading the reserve.
The automatic restoration reserve Energinet is activating in each zone, every minute over the last two hours: above the line it is asking for more power, below it for less. Batteries are among the units that answer it; which ones, Energinet does not publish.
Today’s FCR-N price in East Denmark and FCR price in West Denmark
Reading the price.
Reading the price.
The hourly price Energinet pays for one megawatt of frequency containment reserve, held both ways: FCR-N in DK2, bought with Svenska kraftnät, and FCR in DK1, at the Danish settlement price. Tomorrow’s hours appear once the auctions close. What a megawatt was paid, month by month.
Everything on this page is Energinet’s open data on Energi Data Service, Source: Energinet (www.energidataservice.dk), CC BY 4.0: PowerSystemRightNow (production, exchanges and aFRR activated, every minute), ElectricityProdex5MinRealtime (production by zone, every five minutes), FcrNdDK2 and FcrDK1 (the reserve prices). Read through the site’s own worker and cached for a minute. Nothing on this page is modelled. There are 304 MW of batteries named as operating in Denmark; Energinet’s live data does not show them.
