Vikingegaarden A/S

Vikingegaarden’s makes processes web based. Those concepts can be used to optimize energy consumption. The control unit – VikMote – are mounted at the process to automtaically control the utilization of electricity when this is cheapest.
The system is in operation at a de-central diesel mini power plant.

The main product for the farmer is the heat, and the electricity is sold to the public grid. At a certain price of electricity, the diesel plant is automatically stopped, and the heating takes place by means of power supplied from the public grid.

Another project are pumps in the southern part of Jutland, regulating the water level in the marsh around the city of Tønder. The pumps are mainly started when the electricity are cheapest, optimizing the total cost of energy. The process of start/stop if fully automated.
The price of electricity are transferred to the VikMote on a daily basis, and used to control and optimize the production. Low price of electricity are normally when there are a high energy production of the wind mills.
