Denmark as a Green Frontrunner

The new Energy Agreement in Denmark

Jane Glindvad Kristensen, Head of Division, Danish Energy Agency

.

Danish Energy Policy AgreementThe Agreement applies for the period 2018-24 - based on a broad political agreement

The target is: 55% renewable energy in 2030 Net zero CO2 emissions by 2050

Principles of the Agreement: The market shall, as far as possible,

conduct the green transition

The ambition is that the green transition can take place on commercial terms in a few years

Electricity will be the dominant source of energy

Tenders for 3 new offshore wind

farms of at least 800 MW

Initiatives

Tenders of support for solar and wind

power on land – 215 MW expected

annuallyContinued

financial support for biomass plants and expansion of biogas

and other green gases

Tax Initiatives

Lower electricitytax - makes us

better utilize the green power -for example to

heat or transport

The electricity heating tax is

halved

The general Electricity tax is reduced by

15%

Money savingsin households

Energy Efficiency Initiativesin business and housing

40 million to reduce business energy consumption

26 million for energy savings in households

Support for replacement of household oil boilers

Support for municipal and regional energy renovation

Information on energy savings

Support for green gases

Closing of present support

scheme for biogas in 2020

Productionceling

New support scheme for biogas and other green gases

• For upgrading, transport and industrialprocesses

• 240 million a year• Prefereable a tender• A share will be reserved for ecological

biogas

• No aid for biogas used for heating• Biogas for electricity production will be

supported as electricity productionfrom other biomasses

Expectations to the development in gasproduction

A gas strategy focusing on how the Danish gas

infrastructure can be used commercially in the green

transformation of the energy system.

Gas strategyWill look at the

framework conditions for:

- Competitive increase of biogas and other green gases

- Investments and activities in the North Sea

- Integration of energy systems

Will beconducted2019-2021

500.000 kr. a year to analysis

etc.

Transport Initiatives

100 million kr. to further green transportation

Fall 2018

Individualtransportation on land

Collective transportation on land

Collectivetransportation at sea

Liberalization of the heating sector -greater freedom in choosing fuels

From 2025 an annual pool of 60 million euros for further investments in renewable energy

Agreement on continued exploitation of resources in the North Sea

Coal phased out in energy supply by 2030

Smart and flexible energy system

Regulation taskforce to modernize the supply acts

OTHERS INITIATIVES

Up to 130 milleuros a year from

2024

Energy research

Impact - consequences

55 % of Denmark's energy consumption will

be covered by renewable energy

in 2030

The Danish production of green

electricity will be able to more or less cover

Danish electricity consumption

target of 55% Energy AgreementFrocen Policy

By 2030, 90 % of district heating is expected to come from renewable energy or waste

The Energy Agreement will reduce CO2 emissions

approx. 8 - 9 million in 2030

Climate improvement

Denmark's reduction of CO2 emissions should come from several

fronts
