FED was a Danish digitization project aimed at turning Danish power consumption flexible to enable utilization of excess power from wind turbines and solar cells.
The project brought together Denmark's foremost researchers, organizations, supply companies, software companies and a number of living labs that provide data for the project.
The project ended in March 2023.
The goal: The balancing energy system
By use of digitalization and flexibility, FED will attempt to balance energy consumption with the production of sustainable green energy.
This leads to these advantages:
Cost savings through decreased need for new energy investments
Reduction of CO2 emissions due to full utilization of the sustainable green energy available
Markedly less material consumption and waste generation when the need for an expansion of the energy grid is minimized.
