Monthly distribution of negative net loads <strong>and</strong> high net loads (above 2500 MW)<strong>for</strong> West Denmark in 2025.3 ConclusionIn this study, using <strong>the</strong> case of West Denmark in 2025 with an expected 57 % windpower penetration, wind power impacts are analyzed in a time scale perspective. Byanalysing <strong>the</strong> expected length of high <strong>and</strong> low net load periods, <strong>the</strong> physical potential <strong>for</strong>power system balancing on different time scales is investigated. The expected length ofconsecutive negative <strong>and</strong> high net load periods indicate a physical potential <strong>for</strong> flexibletechnologies being able to charge/activate dem<strong>and</strong> <strong>and</strong> discharge/inactivate dem<strong>and</strong> inperiods from one hour to around half a day, providing intra-day balancing. Theoccurrence of consecutive negative net load periods with lengths of 0.5-3 days,consecutive high net load periods of 0.5-0.75 day <strong>and</strong> of average negative/high net loadperiods with lengths of one to several days also indicate a potential <strong>for</strong> flexibletechnologies capable of balancing intra-week. Finally, <strong>the</strong> estimates indicate a potential<strong>for</strong> seasonal balancing. Intra-hour impacts could not be evaluated since only hourly datawhere available. As will be shown in fur<strong>the</strong>r work, flexible technologies such aselectricity storage technologies <strong>and</strong> heat measures will differ with regard to <strong>the</strong> timescales at which <strong>the</strong>y are suited to support wind power integration.AcknowledgementsThe study is financed by Risø DTU as part of a PhD study on flexibility measuresfacilitating wind power integration.
