Renewable Energy
Climate concerns and dwindling fossil fuel resources are driving an increasing demand for renewable energy solutions. Many countries have passed legislation to increase the use of renewable energy sources and this has, in turn, created a market for new technologies in the area.
Safe and Secure
Energy sources that are perpetual, or self-renewing, guarantee a secure supply, thus minimizing dependency on outside energy suppliers. At the same time, use of renewable energy cuts emissions of carbon dioxide, thereby addressing environmental concerns.
In Denmark renewable energy currently accounts for 15.5% of the country’s gross energy consumption – and more than 27% of all generated electricity. The Danish government has initiated a program to ensure that by 2025 30% of total energy consumption will be from renewable energy sources.
