A new analysis, which the Danish Labour Movement Business Council and Cowi have conducted for the trade union 3F, shows that expectations for green investments in Denmark have plummeted in recent years. This is reported by Finans.

Last year, the Danish Energy Agency's analysis assumptions showed that Denmark's green transition would require average investments of around DKK 83 billion annually from 2025 to 2035. However, if one instead calculates based on the political decisions that have already been made, the expected investments end up significantly lower at just DKK 36 billion per year. Overall, this corresponds to 500 billion kroner less in investments up to 2035 than what the Danish Energy Agency's scenario from autumn 2024 suggested.

According to the analysis, the lower investments mean that 30,000 fewer full-time employees will be needed annually for the green transition than was expected a year ago.
