The National Energy Crisis Staff, NEKST, was established in connection with the policy platform for the present government in December 2022. In February 2024 the NEKST working group "More sun and wind on land" launched a report with 27 recommendations which are all individually or together to ensure a change of pace in terms of the expansion of renewable energy.

About the working group and the report

The objective of the NEKST working group is to identify barriers which are currently impeding renewable energy on land, and submit and implement specific initiatives which may break down such barriers in the process.

The group's work has resulted in a report with 27 recommendations categorised according to three overall issues: Local support, land use and faster processes. The principal points under the three categories are described in the following.

Denmark's electricity grid faces a critical connection crisis as insufficient capacity struggles to meet surging demands from batteries, data centers, power-to-X facilities, electric vehicle charging, and industrial electrification. The Danish Parliament is currently addressing this challenge by amending the Electricity Supply Act, moving away from the "first-come-first-served" principle toward a more politically prioritized approach to grid connection requests.
