Wind Straw Wood Biogas Waste Heat pumps
280 Biomass Plants in Denmark
Wood or straw: • 200 district heating plants• 15 CHP plants
Biogas:• 33 CHP
Municipality Solid Waste:• 24 CHP plants• 8 district heating plants
12% of the electricity consumption and 26% of space heat consumption from biomass, incl. organic waste.
District Heating Production by Fuel
District Heating = Heat supply for 62 pct. of all houses. 26% of all houses in Denmark are heated by biomass-based DH

Financial Support for RE-Electricity (2012)
Favourable prices for electricity shall double the share of RE-electricity in 10 years to about 70 pct. by 2020. Wind power: Large-scale wind farms are promoted by public tenders – lowest sales price per kWh is main criteria. Local small-scale wind projects promoted by fixed premium on top of market price (3.4 €-cent/kWh for averagely half of the wind turbines production). Biomass: Producers receive fixed premium on top of market price (2 €-cent/kWh). Solar PV: Net metering scheme – can in popular terms let the electricity meter run in reverse. Fixed tariff for produced electricity, which exceeds consumption (per hour).
Average direct financial support in 20 years. Grid costs not included.
The financial support is PSO and paid by the electricity consumers.

Financial Support to Renewable Electricity (2012)
New energy agreement (2012)
From coal to biomass in large scale CHP’s (will supply maybe 1/6 of total electricity demand by 2020). Better possibilities to share tax exemption on heating
More renewable energy in industry
Future Development of Renewable Energy
Energy Agreement50% from wind power in 2020
60% from biomass in 2020
Study on sustainable and efficient use of biomass
The scope for the study is broad
The issue of carbon debt
Results from JRC study
Sustainable biomass in a climate perspective?• Forest residues nearly carbon neutral
• Waste, waste wood, industrial residues even better
• Other types of wood from forest: not all forests are equal
• Long-term: strengthen climate convention to account for CO2 from all land uses in all sectors of all countries (also for iLUC)
