REN21 @ren21community.bsky.social · 25/08/2026Between 2000 and 2023, renewables grew from 16% to 82% of electricity consumption. Over the same period, their share of Denmark’s total final energy use rose from 5% to 45%, as renewables expanded into heating, transport, industry and agriculture.

REN21 @ren21community.bsky.social · 11/08/2026Ørsted began as DONG, a state oil and gas company where fossil fuels made up 85% of production well into the 2000s. The full pivot came in 2017, when the company divested its oil and gas assets and renamed itself after the scientist who discovered electromagnetism. 🔗 rbe.ren21.net/case-study/d... 030

REN21 @ren21community.bsky.social · 28/07/2026Wind power in Denmark did not reach 60% of #electricity generation overnight.
