Gren Klaipėda has successfully implemented a Digital Twin solution, DWEEN, developed by Energy Advice. This innovative technology enables a mathematical model of the waste-to-energy plant, allowing advanced data analysis, process optimization, and real-time decision-making.

One of the key advantages of the Digital Twin is its ability to integrate data from various sources, including different operational systems and even external web-based data. This comprehensive approach allows Gren to simulate different scenarios, optimize plant performance, and react swiftly to market fluctuations.

Market conditions in Lithuania necessitated a reduction in boiler load to minimize electricity generation during periods of negative electricity prices. Thanks to the Digital Twin, Gren could analyze, predict, and implement this strategic adjustment efficiently, ensuring both reliable energy production and maximizing financial returns while maintaining its core mission—sustainable waste management. As Rokas Labokas, Gren Klaipėda Operation Manager, explains, “Following the implementation of the Digital Twin system, we gained access to granular operational and financial insights, not just on a monthly basis, but hourly. This enhanced visibility enables us to evaluate how different production patterns align with market conditions in real-time.”
