Future-proofing the electricity market

Well-functioning markets, with strong competition and a high level of flexibility in terms of both supply and demand, are prerequisites for a socio-economically efficient transition of the Danish energy supply. An new market model will help ensure this.
A new market model is to contribute to a healthy investment climate in the energy sector and encourage interaction and flexibility across the value chain.

Flexibility on the demand and generation side

Further studies have been done on the Danish Market design for activation of flexible electricity demand and generation by aggregators.
