Responsibility for the energy

Power in the outlet. Heat in the radiator. Light in the streetlights. All of this requires energy. The Danish Energy Agency takes responsibility for ensuring a secure, sustainable, and affordable energy supply accessible to all. Additionally, the Danish Energy Agency assumes responsibility for the necessary large-scale investments in new green energy. This responsibility involves balancing complex considerations regarding the environment, costs, security, international cooperation, and neighboring communities. The Danish Energy Agency contributes to achieving the goal of a green energy system that benefits the majority and extends its impact across generations into the future.
