In action
Balancing the world’s first dynamic Power-to‑X facility
REDDAP, in Ramme, western Denmark, is the world’s first dynamic Power-to‑X facility, owned by Skovgaard Energy. Powered directly by six wind turbines and a 50 MW solar park, it converts surplus renewable energy into green ammonia for shipping and agriculture, producing 5,000 tonnes a year and cutting 8,200 tonnes of CO2. Operational since December 2025, the facility dynamically adapts to fluctuations in renewable output, reducing the need for costly storage. We are balance responsible party for the facility.
“Danske Commodities will provide important knowledge of the market and, in collaboration with green.ai/asset Energy Management Software, secure a full optimisation across the different technologies on-site, taking care of both the grid and the business,” says Peder i Dali, Business Development Manager at Skovgaard Energy.

Your flexibility and optimisation questions. Answered.
How does optimisation create value for a power producer?
By reacting quickly to market movements and monetising multiple revenue streams simultaneously, optimisation improves margins, stabilises revenues and turns market volatility into a commercial advantage – rather than a risk to manage.
How does Danske Commodities support bankability for a BESS or co-location project?
Bankability for BESS and co-location projects typically depends on reducing merchant risk through structures that provide revenue certainty – such as tolling, floor agreements or partial-tolling arrangements. We tailor the commercial setup to your financing needs and risk profile, and our 24/7 trading setup and track record in volatile markets give lenders and investors confidence that the asset will be managed effectively across its lifetime.
How does optimisation create value for corporates?
By actively managing when and how energy is consumed, stored or sourced, corporates can lower energy costs, reduce exposure to price spikes and improve budget certainty – turning their energy setup into a commercial and sustainability advantage.
