Abstract

A challenge in Denmark in the near future is
to balance the electrical grid due to a large increase in the
renewable energy production mainly from wind turbines. In
this work an aggregated control system using heat pumps in
single family houses to help balancing the grid is investigated.
The control system is able to adjust the consumptions of the
heat pump without affecting the comfort in the houses and uses
this ability to shift the total consumption to hours with high
wind energy production.
