We are delivering Denmark’s Energy Islands
The energy islands in the North and Baltic Sea are some of the largest construction projects in the history of Denmark. These islands provide the possibility to phase out fossil fuels and play a decisive role in advancing the green transition in both Denmark and Europe.
Our areas of responsibility
At the Danish Energy Agency, we are making a difference every day – in Denmark and in countries all over the world. We view climate change as the biggest challenge we are facing. We know we need to be ambitious and innovative in our approach to climate change mitigation.
Our goal is a well-planned green transition with Denmark leading the way, sharing Danish experiences and solutions globally.

After close dialogue with the market and government advisors, the basis for choosing an appropriate direction for further work with the energy island in the North Sea has significantly strengthened. At the same time, it is clear, that investing more time in the tender preparational work, to ensure a solid, professional decision-making basis that can future-proof tomorrow’s energy island in the North Sea thus heralding a new era in development with Danish offshore wind, is of great value. The Danish Energy Agency will therefore postpone commencement of the tendering procedure for The North Sea Energy Island by up to 12 months, but estimates that time can be obtained later in the process.
