About

Annette Ikast is the general counsel for energinet.dk, a non-profit enterprise owned by the Danish Climate and Energy Ministry, where she heads a team of 24 including two heads of department. Energinet.dk currently faces contracts that have ‘become larger, more complex and international over time’ as well as venturing into regulatory tasks and private legal actions. Under her management the legal department has advanced into to a more streamlined and professional process unit dealing with contracts and decision making. Ikast, during her time as general counsel, has ensured that the legal department’s motto reads as ‘Legal is your friend, we will find a solution’ and in order to do so Ikast places strong importance on having a mixed team of legal and non-legal individuals with a broad skill set. As the negotiator of contracts, Ikast and her team were successful in the acquisition of 10 transmission companies, which each had different interests and ownerships leading to over 160 different agreements, a vast task that was well executed. Her leadership and effective management of complex multi-dimensional cases do not go unnoticed with one source quoting ‘we find her a very competent adviser in all matters’.
