Fundamentally, solar and wind power supply the electricity grid when power plants do not stand in the way of renewable electricity gaining access to the grid.

When renewables are not supplying, power plants deliver the necessary electricity – and here, the very important link is that the power plant’s waste steam can supply, for example, an industrial process that can also absorb surplus electricity during periods of renewable overproduction. This dualistic coupling is absolutely essential!

There are various individual systems that enable this dualistic production setup:

​

  • The thermal battery, which can store thermal energy – see Link 

  • The multifuel power plant –see Link

  • The Smart Grid system –see Link

  • Electrofuels – see Link​ 

The art of integration
renewable energy (RE)

One of the most important tools for integrating very large amounts of renewable energy production is the dualistic production system, which operates in industries, district heating plants, and across the entire heating sector. It allows heat and process consumption to alternate between being supplied by surplus renewable electricity or by waste steam from power plants that supply the electricity grid when renewables are not generating.
