Lolland CTF

Lolland Community Testing Facilities (Lolland CTF) is one of Denmark’s first innovative partnerships within renewable energy that through constructive collaboration between research and business combine the targets of Danish industry with the municipality’s visions for sustainable growth and development.

5 pillars:

• Windenergy• Hydrogen & Fuel Cell Technology• Biotechnology• Biomass • Water and Waste Water

Total Annual Power Generation = 1,150,000 MWhTotal Annual Power Consumption = 750,000 MWh

Biomass (4%)

Biogas (>1%)

Wind (92%)

Waste (4%)

Status Lolland-Falster

Wind Power Test Field

Kappel Test field• Construct world's largest onshore test field for offshore

windmills• 9 mills, Max height 720 feet (Golden Gate Bridge 748

feet)

Vindeby Off-Shore Test Field

Vindeby Test Field (2007)• Convert world's first offshore windmill field to test field• Integrated wind and tide/wave power plant prototype

30,000 KW Scale 1:6 (www.poseidonorgan.com)

Concept to be tested in the demonstration

• μCHP fueled by a hydrogen grid. Hydrogen from renewable energy will be used.

• 4 private houses in 2008, 35 in 2009
