THE PUBLIC MEETING: Intensive work is being done on how Denmark's transport routes for the quantities of green energy coming to Denmark will look like. Deputy directors Stine Grenaa Jensen and Hanne Storm Edlefsen from Energinet gave insight into this at the People's Meeting.
- We are looking into a future where we have made plans for how the entire infrastructure will look, for example with hydrogen, said Hanne Storm Edlefsen, who was able to show a map of where a hydrogen pipeline will probably be located in the future, when hydrogen from the North Sea's green energy will be transported to industrial users in Europe.
- We must also look at where the PtX plants will be located, because it makes the most sense, they are located where the green electricity and the users of hydrogen are, said Stine Grenaa Jensen, who was able to identify eight PtX plants, one of which will be located on an energy island in the North Sea.
One of the PtX plants is planned to be located in Esbjerg, and this gave rise to a question about how many container ships would be able to get green fuel from a GW PtX plant.
- A GW PtX plant can supply three container ships with green fuel, said Stine Grenaa Jensen.
The function of the energy island was made clear to her colleague for everyone.
- What the energy island can and should do is to collect the electricity in a hub for the offshore wind and send it abroad, concluded Hanne Storm Edlefsen, who is deputy director of the energy island's infrastructure.
No offshore turbines on Funen
Hanne Storm Edlefsen herself comes from Funen, perhaps that was why the spectators wanted to know why offshore wind turbines are not being erected around the island in the middle of Denmark.
- The area around Funen is not suitable for the erection of offshore wind turbines, but only for the smaller coastal wind turbines, of which there are already some, said Hanne Strom Edlefsen, who was also able to show Nature 2000 areas where there will be no wind turbines in the future.
How the world has changed is also evident in planning, which has changed rapidly. That is also the case at Energinet.
- Previously we could find the best solutions, but now we just have to get started, because now it is the climate change that determines the pace, said Stine Grenaa Jensen about something that must happen quickly.
