E.ON: stabilising electricity grid with wind power.

(CercleFinance.com) - E.
ON said on Thursday that it will be one of the first companies to stabilize the German electricity grid with wind power.

While only renewable energy from hydroelectric power plants and biogas power plants had contributed to grid stability, it has been technically possible to participate in the control energy market with energy from wind turbines for around a year now, the energy company said.

Concretely, E.ON has obtained pre-qualification for a customer wind farm in the Vorpommern-Greifswald administrative district in the federal state of Mecklenburg-Western Pommerania from the transmission system operator, 50Hertz.

The company is now planning to continuously increase the share of wind power for supply security.
