Energy Flexibility Potential in the Brewery Sector: A Multi-agent Based Simulation of 239 Danish Breweries

The beverage industry is a typical food processing industry and accounts for significant energy consumption, e.g., 1 % of The grid stability and security of supply are challenged Danish energy consumption [10]. The beverage industry can due to the increasing penetration of renewable energy sources be further divided based on the beverage type, with beer in the electricity grid [1]. Furthermore, conventional balancing production being the category with the highest energy of the electricity grid through supply-side management is consumption accounting for 40 % of the beverages industry's becoming costly, and the capacity required to ensure the combined energy consumption [10]. For instance, Denmark security of supply would be inefficient [2]. Demand-side has the highest number of breweries per capita [11] among the management has seen increasing potential to mitigate the European nations. As of April 2022, there were 275 breweries impact of fluctuations in the electricity grid and aid in in Denmark. A survey based on the Danish Brewery stabilization by adjusting consumer demand subject to Associations members shows that approximately 50 % of electricity market conditions [3]. Danish beverage facilities might be permanently close or go Demand side management can be divided based on the bankrupt due to COVID-19 and the increasing energy prices load-shape objective, e.g., peak clipping, valley filling, and [12].
