Solar power in Denmark amounts to 3,645 MW of grid-connected PV capacity at the end of March 2024,[1] and contributes to a goal to use 100% renewable electricity by 2030 and 100% renewable energy by 2050.[2][3] Solar power produced 9.3% of Danish electricity generation in 2023, the highest share in the Nordic countries.[4][5]
The goal of 200 MW of photovoltaics by 2020 was reached eight years early, in 2012.[6] Projections of future capacity have continued to increase; a total of 9,000 MW (9 GW) is expected to be installed by 2030.[7]
Many solar-thermal district heating plants exist and are planned in Denmark.[8]
