Lessons from Denmark – the world leader in climate action

The pioneer of commercial wind energy says it will reduce emissions by at least 82% by 2035, relative to 1990 levels.

Heavy industry is responsible for 22% of global emissions of heat-trapping gases, meaning alternative production methods are critical.

Home to 11 million people, Sweden has been a net exporter of electricity since 2011, thanks in part to the rising contribution from wind.

Wind, solar and hydropower are set to generate a combined 37% of the UK's electricity in 2024, compared to 35% from fossil fuels.

All the company's new data centre designs will employ this cooling technology, and the first sites using it will come online in late 2027.

The momentum is being driven by India’s push to build out local clean energy capacity to limit reliance on China, and the goal of exporting.

The clean energy source now meets nearly a fifth (18%) of the country's peak electricity demand, up from just 2.5% in 2017.
