Supply and consumption

Society requires a secure supply of electricity, heat, and water. The Danish Energy Agency works on both supply security and managing the consequences of consumption. This includes, among other things, economically regulating the supply, ensuring competition in areas such as electricity, managing consumer protection, and issuing permits for the extraction of gas and oil. Consumption leads to emissions of CO2, wastewater, and waste. Therefore, The Danish Energy Agency also regulates the water and waste area and works with the capture and storage of CO2.
