Denmark: TotalEnergies and DTU inaugurate their Hybrid Power
In 2024, TotalEnergies and the Technical University of Denmark (DTU) inaugurated a pilot hybrid power plant allowing researchers to carry out tests aimed at
Solar power in Denmark amounts to 4,832 MW of grid-connected PV capacity at the end of September 2025, and contributes to a government target to use 100% renewable electricity by 2030 and 100% renewable energy by 2050. Solar power produced 11.2% of Danish electricity generation in 2024, the highest share in the Nordic countries.
Denmark has lower solar insolation than many countries closer to Equator, but lower temperatures increase production. Modern solar cells decrease production by 0.25% per year. 2020 In 2020 The Danish Energy Agency announced 400 MW PV projects in the Nissum Fjord location. 2015
Projections of future capacity have continued to increase; a total of 9,000 MW (9 GW) is expected to be installed by 2030. Many solar-thermal district heating plants exist and are planned in Denmark. Solar power provided 1.4 TWh, or the equivalent of 4.3% or 3.6% of Danish electricity consumption in 2021.
Denmark generates over 50% of its electricity from renewable sources, mainly wind and solar. The country's offshore wind farms are some of the largest in the world. Horns Rev 3: Produces 407 MW of clean energy, powering over 400,000 homes. Kriegers Flak: Adds 600 MW to Denmark's national grid, operational since 2021.
