Gas Quality in Denmark
Gas that reaches Denmark’s consumers come from diverse sources, such as the North Sea, Germany, biogas upgrading facilities and Energinet’s gas storage facilities.
Regardless of its origin, gas flowing through Energinet's transmission system must at all times be compatible with Danish gas legislation established by the Danish Safety Technology Authority as detailed in Denmark's Gas Regulation and Rules for Gas Transport.
