The overall share of renewables in final energy consumption among electricity, transportation, and heat sectors is 37%, with bioenergy making up 26% of the energy share.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"Role<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n

Electricity<\/h4>\n\n\n\n

The Danish power production has taken major steps towards renewable energy, which is exceptional for a country without major hydropower opportunities. Major growth was in wind energy, which now represents around 45% of Danish electricity consumption. The share of bioenergy is also relevant with 17%, which is mainly produced in CHPs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Heat<\/h4>\n\n\n\n

The provision of fuel\/heat in Denmark is for 38% based on direct use of fossil fuels (natural gas, oil, and a small fraction of coal in industry), for 45% on distributed heat (which is partly fossil, partly renewable, see further) and for 16% based on direct use of biomass.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"Evolution<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n

Heat sales \u2013 e.g., through district heating \u2013 are particularly important in Denmark. Heat output generated and sold by CHP plants and heat plants represented 45% of fuel\/heat provided in 2019, of which 60% was produced from\u00a0biomass. The share of biomass in\u00a0district heating has consistently\u00a0grown in the past decades\u00a0where particularly coal and\u00a0natural gas were replaced with\u00a0biomass.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Transport<\/h4>\n\n\n\n

Diesel is the dominant transport fuel in Denmark, and its consumption was in fact still increasing until recently. Between 2010 and 2012 there was a strong increase of biofuels, but this has rather stabilized after 2012 at around 5% of overall transport energy consumption. The main biofuel is biodiesel, which is consistent with the dominance of diesel fuels in Danish transport. On average biodiesel represents 6.3% by the energy of diesel consumption (which is consistent with the widespread use of B7). Bioethanol on average represents 3.3% by the energy of gasoline (which is consistent with the widespread use of E5).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Electricity represents a share of 0.9% of total transport energy use. This is mostly in rail \u2013 the use of electricity in road vehicles is still marginal in 2019 (0.11% of total transport energy use) but can be expected to grow in the coming years.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
