Challenges and requirements

The energy and energy supply sector in Denmark, Europe and globally faces two primary challenges – energy security and the reduction of carbon emissions. The future-proofing of the supply of energy by way of more environmentally neutral energy resources is necessary, not only from an environmental perspective, but also due to security policy considerations. This field is complex, which necessitates a thorough knowledge of the legal and commercial challenges facing the sector.
