At Danske Commodities, we take on the trading and optimisation, so you don’t have to build the capability or manage the risk in-house. Our traders, quants and engineers work across day-ahead, intraday and ancillary services markets, finding value in the gaps, the shifts and the moments most others miss. You stay focused on ownership and strategy. We make sure the asset earns what it should.
Your assets. Fully optimised.
WHAT WE OFFER
More from every megawatt
We don’t just provide market access – we optimise every position for maximum value. Two decades of experience in volatile energy markets, combined with advanced quantitative methods and automation, means we capture opportunities continuously and in real time.
With profit-share-based optimisation, our incentives are fully aligned with yours. We succeed when your asset performs better. And because we manage dispatch, balancing responsibility and market exposure on your behalf, you get stronger returns without taking on unmanaged risk.
How we work
1. Agree upfront
We start with what matters to you – risk appetite, objectives and decision rights – so the setup reflects your constraints and governance from day one.
2. Design
We build an optimisation strategy for real market conditions, not just short-term price signals. Technical constraints, market exposure and long-term value all factored in.
3. Execute 24/7
Markets don’t pause. Neither do we. We trade and optimise continuously across day-ahead, intraday and ancillary services markets, around the clock, every day.
4. Report & refine
Clear reporting, full performance attribution and ongoing refinement as conditions change. Transparency without noise.
Our partner promise
For asset owners, partnership means one thing above all: your asset performing at its full potential, consistently and with managed risk. We work toward the same goal, with aligned incentives, clear roles and open, honest communication.
We won’t upsell what you don’t need. We’ll turn your challenges into solutions and back it with in-house capabilities built for every stage of the optimisation process.
No black-box optimisation. No unnecessary complexity. Just disciplined execution and genuine collaboration, from the first conversation to long-term performance.
Because when you succeed, we succeed.

Producer PPAs
A well-structured PPA secures your route to market, reduces balancing and merchant risk and strengthens the investment case. We structure and manage agreements around your ambitions and risk appetite – from hedged fixed-price to complex structures – for up to 15 years, backed by Equinor all the way.
BESS and co-location
Your battery investment deserves peak returns. We optimise dispatch and co-located production across multiple revenue streams – managing charge and discharge, protecting asset health and turning price swings into profit.
Heat and power
Thermal flexibility backs up renewables. We help heat and power asset owners navigate operational complexity and capture maximum value across spot, intraday, balancing and ancillary markets, 24/7.
Wind and solar
From intraday re-trading to ancillary market participation, we optimise intermittent generation to improve capture prices, reduce imbalance exposure and unlock revenue streams that go beyond day-ahead.
Renewable energy certificates
Guarantees of Origin across Europe, REGOs in the UK, ROCs and El-certificates in the Nordics – sourced at competitive prices with full traceability from verified assets. We handle the complexity so your renewable claims hold up under scrutiny.
What asset owners ask us
What value does a trading and optimisation partner create for an existing asset?
A partner unlocks additional revenue and more stable returns by optimising how the asset participates across day-ahead, intraday, forward and ancillary services markets – turning volatility into opportunity rather than risk.
How are risk and control handled?
Risk appetite, governance and decision rights are agreed upfront. Optimisation strategies are built around your constraints, and you retain full oversight throughout.
How are incentives aligned?
Structures are designed so the optimiser only succeeds when your asset performs better – whether through profit-share or performance-based arrangements. No misaligned interests, no upsell – just a shared focus on real value creation.
What does this mean operationally?
24/7 trading, optimisation and reporting handled end to end. You focus on ownership and strategy. We handle the complexity.
