Thanks for your quick reply!
Then this should be the answer, isnt it?

# Calcualte the Expected Shortfall (99)
test_es = apply(df1_var, 1, function(x) x['Mu'] + x['Sigma'] *
                                    ((integrate(f, 0, 0.01, skew =
x['Skew'], shape = x['Shape'])$value) / (0.01)))

Greetings
Daniel
