At Danske Commodities, we help developers and investors turn energy projects into bankable, financeable assets – without taking on unnecessary complexity or unmanaged risk. From first revenue to long-term performance, we bring the trading expertise, risk discipline and in-house capabilities to make your project stand up to scrutiny and deliver over time. You focus on development, financing and scale. We make sure the commercial side holds.
Projects that perform. Partnerships that last.
Built for bankability
For developers and investors, the question isn’t just how much revenue an asset can generate. It’s whether that revenue is credible, defensible and structured to survive lender stress tests and investment committee scrutiny.
We bring two decades of experience in volatile energy markets, combined with advanced quantitative methods and automation, to optimise every position for maximum value. Structures are designed so we only succeed when your project delivers – whether through profit-share, fixed price structures, or performance-based arrangements. And because we manage market exposure, balancing responsibility and risk on your behalf, you get a commercial setup that’s built to last.
Strength you can rely on
Backed by Equinor, we bring financial strength, long-term commitment and genuine skin in the game. That backing allows us to take on market risk, commit across cycles and stand firmly behind optimisation strategies even in volatile conditions.
For BESS, renewables and hybrid projects, it means stronger counterparty credibility, greater resilience and confidence that your revenues are protected and optimised over time. Not just at financial close – throughout the asset lifecycle.
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 developers and investors, partnership means one thing above all: a project that can be financed, defended and relied upon at every stage of its lifecycle. 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 process.
No black-box assumptions. No structures that don’t survive scrutiny. 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 developers and investors ask us
How does partnering with Danske Commodities support project bankability?
Lenders and investors need governance, predictability and evidence. We provide transparent reporting, auditable performance attribution and contract structures aligned to financing needs – making your operating setup diligence-ready from day one.
How are risk and control handled?
Risk appetite, governance and decision rights are agreed upfront. Optimisation strategies are built around your financing constraints and lender requirements, and you retain full oversight throughout.
How does optimisation protect the long-term value of a battery?
We dispatch with degradation and cycling constraints in mind – balancing revenue opportunities with asset health to protect lifetime economics. Short-term upside is never worth long-term damage.
How are incentives aligned?
Structures are designed so we only succeed when your project delivers – whether through profit-share, fixed price structures or performance-based arrangements. No misaligned interests, no upsell – just a shared focus on real, long-term value creation.
