Power-system flexibility is essential for large-scale renewable integration. Flexible thermal generation plays a key role in Denmark’s energy transition, positioning Denmark well to partner with India on this topic and share learnings.
As part of a consortium with Energinet and COWI, Ea participated in this project under the Indo-Danish Energy Partnership Programme (INDEP), which was a continuation of previous activities during 2020, 2021 and early 2022.
The main task was to conduct an analysis demonstrating and quantifying the economic gains and possible incentives needed to achieve flexibility of thermal power plants, versus other means of flexibility.
Ea was responsible for providing results and analysis based on various scenarios carried out using the Indian Balmorel Model (developed in collaboration with CEA (India) and DEA). In the analysis, we looked at difference in operation and dispatch based on varying combinations of levels of flexibility for two specific thermal plants (previously analysed by COWI) as a part of the Indian power system.
The project ran from March 2024 to August 2025.
