Tone Madsen, Danish Energy Agency June 19 2012

Where are we heading? The long-term target is 100% renewable energy in energy and transport sectors by 2050 Key elements: - Energy efficiency - Electrification - Renewable energy - Research and development in new technologies Despite changing governments

Why are we doing it? Figure showing global energy demand 1990-2040 acc to IEA

Financing the initiatives

Wind Energy Hanne Windemuller Head of Department Danish Energy Agency

Share of wind power in electricity consumption 2010-2020

Danish Energy Agreement 2012 In 2020 50% of electricity consumption supplied by wind power A solid and ambitious framework 1000 MW of large scale offshore wind at: * Horns Rev (400 MW) * Kriegers Flak (600 MW) 500 MW offshore turbines in coastal areas Net capacity of 500 MW wind power onshore

Measures to promote the expansion of wind energy Compensation for loss of value to neighboring real estate due to the erection of wind turbines Local citizens’ option to purchase wind turbine shares  Green scheme to enhance local scenic and recreational values Guarantee fund to support financing of preliminary investigations by local wind turbine owners’ associations

Planning off shore wind Energieffektivitet Havdybde og bundforhold Naturbeskyttelses-interesser Visuelle aspekter Råstofinteresser Sejladsforhold Transmissions-netforhold Økonomi (samfund og aktør) 4200 MW identificeret Heraf er 1000 MW nu vedtaget

Why has the Danish wind development been a success? Firm political commitment The planning process and one stop shop Production for both domestic market and abroad Danish manufacturers in the lead globally Bottom-up process to gain local initiative and acceptance from neighbours

Model for installing offshore capacity Tender for large scale farms Political agreement Dialog with potential bidders Fixed feed in tariff for 50.000 peak-load hours Fixed/flexible time schedule Cable to shore provided by TSO

Future challenges Smart Grids and more flexible usage, such as electric vehicles and heat pumps are necessary Meget stærk integration til nabolandene, har medvirket til indpasningen. Kapaciteten på forbindelserne svarer stort set til max forbrug Elektriciteten handles på spotmarkedet på Nord Pool (producenter melder forventninger ind indtil kl. 12, regionale markedspriser for næste døgn (midnat- mindnat) meldes ud kl 14 – systemet er mere smidigt end det normalt kendes i europa) Samfundsøkonomien i nye forbindelser analyseres, fx. Cobra, Kriegers Flak, KBH- Sverige Indenlandske virkemidler også nødvendige: Elpatronloven gjort permanent Varmepumper, el-biler Balancering af elforbrug også vha. forbrugs-styring , smart grid Nordsønet bliver ikke nødvendigvis direkte koblet på Danmark, da vores havmølleudbygningsområder ligger på lavt vand tæt på kysten. Men den øgende integration af landenes elsystemer og harmonisering af VE støtten, som må forventes grundet nordsønettet vil være relevant for Danmark. Danske erfaringer med stor udveksling af el vil kunne udnyttes i samarbejdet omkring nordsøen
