The Government's Strategy | Power-to-X

P 2 X

With the Climate agreement for energy and industry, etc. of 22 June 2020, the Government reached an agreement with a majority of the parties of the Folketing to prepare a Danish strategy for Power-to-X (PtX) and utilisation of carbonaceous products (Carbon Capture and Utilisation - CCU). Since then, developments have proceeded at an incredible pace. PtX projects have been announced across all of Denmark, with more on the way.

The Government has launched initiatives that can contribute to the promotion of PtX through a number of agreements and proposals. The adoption and utilisation of PtX technologies requires strategic planning, targeting and prioritisation.

With this strategy for PtX and CCU, the Danish Government is now taking its first major holistic step to create the necessary framework conditions for PtX in Denmark. These framework conditions are intended to facilitate the contribution of these technologies to the objectives of the Danish Climate Act, the realisation of their commercial potential and their integration into the Danish energy system.

The PtX strategy is based on the Danish Energy Agency’s analyses and running dialogue with the PtX industry.
