The successful development of the wind energy innovation system in Denmark is the result of two complementary processes: proactive, consistent and systematic government planning and interventions (top-down) and bottom-up experimentation via local entrepreneurs and cooperatives.

How does wind affect Denmark's energy system?

Wind also contributes significantly to Denmark’s broader energy system. Data from the Energy Institute shows that wind power accounts for over a quarter of Denmark’s total primary energy consumption — the largest figure globally. Denmark also ranks first in per capita wind power generation, with Sweden close behind.
