Denmark has become a central hub for the European energy transition. The country already has one of the highest shares of renewable energies in its electricity mix. But that's by no means enough for the Danes.

There are just about 5.8 million Danes. Nevertheless, the country has now decided to expand its offshore wind energy capacity by 2030 to the point where it is calculated that 7.7 million households can be supplied with it. This corresponds to a quadrupling of the current capacity.

The Danes are pursuing innovative ways to achieve this. A few years ago, when German-Dutch grid operator TenneT proposed an energy island in the North Sea, everybody was frowning.

The first batch of towers and nacelles has been delivered to the construction site of the Azov wind farm in Russia. The wind farm is scheduled to go online by the end of 2020.

NKT is now running its cable production with electricity from renewable energy sources, which results in a 66 percent reduction in CO2 emissions from energy consumption.

In the future, NKT will manufacture its power cables using electricity that comes from renewable energy sources. The ongoing measures reduce CO2 emissions from the plants' total energy consumption by 66% compared to the previous year and save more than 48,000 tons of CO2 annually - equivalent to the annual electricity consumption of 8,148 households,

Ten of the world’s leading offshore energy organisations have joined the Offshore Renewable Energy (ORE) Catapult’s national Floating Offshore Wind Centre of Excellence (FOWCoE) to drive forward the development of next-generation offshore wind technologies in the UK.

These companies include: EDF Renewables, EDP Renewables, Equinor, ESB, Mainstream Renewable Power, ScottishPower Renewables, SSE Renewables, and Offshore Wind Power Ltd (OWPL), Total and Shell.
