Summary
Central heating and cooling expansion, as well as power market modeling to utilize large-scale renewable energy capacity in Türkiye is top of the agenda of the Strategic Sector Cooperation in Energy between Türkiye and Denmark, Ole Emmik Sorensen, the director of the Centre for Global Cooperation at the Danish Energy Agency (DEA) said Tuesday.
As part of BEST For Energy (Boosting Effective and Sustainable Transformation for Energy) Project implemented by Izmir Development Agency (IZKA) and the Energy Industrialist and Businessmen's Association (ENSIA), a study visit to Denmark revealed the journey that Denmark has taken in its energy transition.
Sorensen, in an exclusive interview with Anadolu Agency, said this transition started in the middle of the seventies energy crisis when Denmark was 99% dependent on imported fossil fuels, prompting a focus on energy efficiency and its own renewable energy resources.
Partnerships with the DEA, according to Sorensen, have allowed the organization to pass on the many technical and institutional lessons it has learned over the last 50 years to others who have come to the transition path later.
The aim of such partnerships is to decrease global emissions as much as possible.
Much help is needed is this regard because even if Denmark succeeds in becoming CO2-neutral tomorrow by cutting all emissions, it would only equate to a 0.1% reduction in global emissions.
