Electricity in Denmark - statistics & facts
Stretching for nearly 43,000 square kilometers across the Jutland Peninsula and several hundred islands, Denmark has made a name for itself as a leader in the energy transition. In fact, the country had the largest share of electricity generation from wind and solar sources worldwide in 2022, at more than 60 percent. With the majority of electricity generation now coming from renewable energy sources, the Nordic country is making good progress on its goals of achieving net-zero emissions by 2045 and phasing out fossil fuels by 2050.
