Date publishedJuly 18, 2023

With the idea that energy should not be a cost for entrepreneurs, but create new value for them, ENNA Opskrba, an ambitious and dynamic company of the ENNA group, offers the market the service of aggregation through a virtual power plant.

Namely, HERA has issued a license to the ENNA Opskrba company for performing the activity of energy aggregation, which is valid until June 2029, enabling a step towards smart energy management.

Virtual Power Plant (VPP) on the Croatian market will, through its technological platform, integrate network users (consumers, producers, energy storage) and will enable its partners to generate additional revenue from ancillary services to the system by smartly managing production and consumption in accordance with system conditions.

Virtual power plants are made up of both consumers and electricity producers (solar power plants, wind farms, biogas plants, cogeneration plants, etc.) as well as energy storage batteries. The energy needs of all the mentioned stakeholders are managed in an integrated manner within the virtual power plant system to keep the market balanced, allowing VPP service users to achieve maximum benefits brought by a wide range of entities with diverse energy needs.

Flexibility in the energy system refers to the ability to adjust production, consumption, and network operation in response to changing supply and demand conditions, as well as managing the uncertainty associated with the integration of renewable energy sources.

The aggregator (ENNA Opskrba) maintains balance in direct communication with the transmission system operator (HOPS) by managing the production and/or consumption of network users within its aggregation system, i.e., its virtual power plant.

The ultimate goal of the VPP is to ensure system stability and to provide its partners, network users, with additional revenue alongside the income from their core activities.

ENNA Opskrba has assembled a team of experts that brings together rich knowledge and experience of the Croatian and European energy markets and now offers domestic companies an innovative business model that will enable them to make the best use of their own energy position.

"The virtual power plant will enable us to achieve multiple benefits - it gives end users the opportunity to become active participants in the electricity market and thus generate additional income. The aim of virtual power plants is not only to balance the system, but also to support sustainable development through the integration of renewable sources, and in this way we also support the green transition of the Croatian economy towards a more sustainable energy system", explained Marijeta Majer, director of sales at ENNA Opskrba.
