1 System Integration of Renewable Energies Convergence of Electricity and Gas, DBI Gas- und Umwelttechnik GmbH Jürgen Lenz, DVGW e.v. Gerald Linke, e.on ruhrgas EGATEC, 13 th May 2011, Copenhagen

2 Currant Developments in Energy Supply Demographic Developments Energy Efficiency Structural Change in Industry Impact Renewable Energy Sources 2

3 Energy Supply Structures Are Changing Declining demand on heating market by demographic impacts, forced in creasing of efficiency Political restrictions for fossil fuels, subsidies for renewables Vast number of energy sources, especially renewables Increasing volatility of renewable sources Vast number of new applications 3

4 Changes in Energy Demand Due to Legal Requirements Household electricity Fan electricity Hot water Space heating * ** *** Source: BEE Expected energy demand by floor area for new build single family homes. * Building stock ** Thermal Insulation Ordinance *** Energy Conservation Ordinance

5 Development of Biomethane Injection increase sum plants in operation injection in 1000 m³/h (NTP) year (planned) plants in operation Quelle: Biogaspartner Political Aims in Germany: bcm/year bcm/year

6 The Answer DVGW Innovation Initiative Gas Strengthen technology basis of gaseous energy carrier focussing on efficiency and innovation, reducing climate impact Highlighting the potential of gas in a future energy system for Reducing GHG Emissions Promoting the role of renewable gaseous energy carrier within the existing natural gas grid: Greening of Gas Developing of concepts and technologies to prepare gas distribution grids for the future (Intelligent Gas Grids Smart Gas Grids) Supporting the market introduction of innovative gas technologies: Gas-Plus-Technologies Start end of 2009, 2 years, 6 Mio. EUR, funded by members of DVGW 6

7 The Idea 3 Level Model Macro level: role of energy carrier gas, utilisation paths primary energy efficiency, climate impact Network level: intelligent grids smart grids Customer level: new technologies, system integration 7

8 Structure of DVGW Innovation Initiative Clusters 1 System Analysis Analysis of process chains Smart Grids Energetic assessments Mobility Modeling of energy supply scenarios 5 projects 2 Gas Production Processing Fermentative biogas production, gasification (SNG), H 2 Gas quality, treatment, process optimization, mater circles 3 projects 3 Grid Management Network and Facility Management Storages, Compressors IT-Processes, Smart Gas Grids 3 projects 4 End User Technologies Condensing Boiler.+ Solar GHP CHP-Systems Industry customers Device components 8 projects 5 Communication Cooperation with organizations Result dissemination (politicians and customers) 8

9 The Role of Gaseous Energy Carrier Has to Defined in a New Way Separate for Every Country Gas (natural gas, biogas, hydrogen) is a key element of an integrated energy supply concept with using hydrogen from volatile renewables to stabilise power grids reduced investments and expansion of power transit grids providing storages for energy grids electricity-controlled CHP to compensate PV and wind incorporation of smart grid control systems intelligent use of waste heat to reduce scope of insulation measures planned for today s building stock today s electric appliances for heating water 9

10 Role of Gas Grids in the Future Energy Supply System Nuclear Energy Carbon Capture Coal Renewables (Wind, PV) Power Underground Gas Storages Hydrogen Methane Gas Natural Gas Biogas - Manure, RRM - Biomass, Wood Synthetic Gas (e.g. from coal with carbon capture or wood) CCGT power plants Combined heat and power Production and Use of Heat and Power in Customer Appliances 10

22 Smart Gas Grids Are the key for storing renewables in the natural gas grid Lead to convergence of gas and electricity grids Support the long term justification of gas grids But The success of SGG depends on its components and their added value SGG need to provide a high reliability at acceptable costs The costs for SGG are expected to be higher than for the conventional NG grid and will be paid by the customers => political changes are needed as the grids are currently regulated Political decisions need to be founded on a reliable basis showing the potential of SGG Providing this technological basis is the task of the NG industry 22
