With the grid connection of the 148 MW Glejbjerg Solar Park and the commissioning of the 200 MWh battery energy storage system at Kvosted Energy Park just before the new year, European Energy has reached 2.1 GW of grid-connected renewable capacity in Denmark. The portfolio spans utility-scale solar PV, wind power and battery energy storage systems (BESS), and now represents more than 20% of Denmark’s total onshore renewable energy capacity.

European Energy’s grid-connected portfolio in Denmark comprises more than 40 projects developed, acquired and commissioned between 2013 and 2025, reflecting a long-term development and asset management strategy in the country. Projects are distributed across Denmark, and the company currently manages around 2 GW of the installed capacity.

The milestone comes at a time when Denmark’s power system faces growing demand. According to the Danish Energy Agency, national electricity consumption is expected to double by 2040, underlining the need for a significant expansion of renewable generation and system flexibility to support the green transition.

“We have a strong development portfolio across Denmark, supported by solid local partnerships. Projects only contribute to the green transition when they are successfully built and brought into operation. Reaching this milestone demonstrates our ability to deliver, and we look forward to continuing to support local and national climate and energy targets,” says Maja Rasmussen, Country Manager for Denmark at European Energy.
