Denmark is one of the world leaders in wind power. More than half of the country’s electricity now comes from wind, and Denmark has set a goal of becoming independent of fossil fuels by 2050.
Copenhagen is the center of much of this work. The Technical University of Denmark (DTU), near the capital, offers master’s programs in Sustainable Energy Technologies and in Sustainable Energy Systems, covering wind and solar power, energy storage, biofuels, and the integration of renewable sources into the grid.
Danish universities work closely with industry on offshore wind, smart grids, and energy efficiency. Danish wind technology is exported around the world, and the country’s experience is widely studied as a model for the energy transition.
