Smart Energy Systems - (short version)

Smart Energy Systems: 100% Renewable Energy at a National Level (Full Version) Denmark has decided to become independent from fossil fuels. For the sake of the climate, the economy, and in order to ensure security of energy supply. This film shows how this will happen based on research conducted at Aalborg University (www.smartenergysystems.eu). At present wind and solar energy already delivers a good share of Denmark's energy, but renewable energy is a major challenge for an energy system that is built upon fossil fuels. Energy production from wind and solar fluctuates - it fluctuates as the wind blows. So what renewables are reliable when there is no sun or wind energy available? Another challenge is the transport sector. How do we create an energy system of renewable energy, where also cars, ships and planes can operate on fossil-free energy? A great example of an energy system that will ensure Denmark a 100% renewable energy system is called: Smart Energy Systems - a coherent, fossil-free energy system that will create lots of new jobs and green energy for the Danes, both in terms of electricity, heat and transport.

BLUE PLANET INNOVATION - sustainable energy & business
Blue Planet Innovation (BPI) is a company dedicated to guide and advice Danish and European agriculture to develop environmental and economic sustainable business models as a substantial future energy supplier.
CEO of the company is Olav Rasmussen.

Background:
The Danish government has decided that Denmark needs to become independent from fossil fuels. But solar and wind energy cannot deliver all the energy that is demanded from the Danish citizens. That is why biogas in the future will become a demanded energy source. The transition to a fossil free society means that agriculture becomes an important producer of energy. But how will this transition take place?
Blue Planet Innovation (BPI) works with the development of models for biogas production in Denmark. These models ensure that Danish agriculture and the rural areas in Denmark receive the greatest benefits from the growth that a heavy expansion in biogas production will create.
BPI has through collaboration with local and regional stakeholders developed a strong business concept which creates new standards for the way in which biogas from agriculture can be organised, produced and distributed.
