The Danish Energy Agency has opened for applications for permits to investigate the possibility of CO2 storage in the subsurface in five selected onshore areas. Initially, the exploration permit is granted for a period of six years, with the possibility of extension. If the area meets environmental requirements and demonstrates suitable potential for CO2 storage, the permit holder has priority to apply for a storage permit. The deadline for application is 24 January 2024.

New Prioritisation Model For The Electricity Grid – Key Points In The Bill And Draft Executive Orders

Denmark's Bill L 23 establishes a new framework for prioritising access to the country's electricity grid through four distinct categories, ranging from critical societal needs to data centres. The legislation introduces 'grid friendliness' as a key criterion for determining which energy projects receive priority connection, fundamentally reshaping how operators compete for scarce grid capacity.

Ny prioriteringsmodel for elnettet – hovedpunkter i lovforslag og udkast til bekendtgørelser

Denmark's new electricity grid capacity prioritization framework establishes four distinct categories for grid connection requests, ranging from protected household needs to data centers, with network-friendliness serving as the key criterion for determining access. The proposed regulations introduce flexible grid products and require network operators to assess projects based on their impact on grid capacity and contribution to efficient utilization.

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.
