ENERGY EFFICIENCY
Presentations and dialogue with experts from companies, embassies and institutions
Energy efficiency is a topic of growing relevance as still more companies strive for improved energy and resource efficiency in line with increasing global targets. Denmark’s experience and Danish solutions are in high demand abroad – and Danish companies are increasingly using energy efficiency as a selling point for their products and services.
During Green Energy Export Day, there will be workshops highlighting the opportunities within energy efficiency in France and US, respectively. In these countries there is a manifest demand and growing awareness for Danish solutions, and a range of activities and partnerships to support Danish exports.
The third workshop follows up on the recent IEA Global Conference on Energy Efficiency, which was successfully held in Sønderborg in June with strong international participation and business interaction at the EE Solutions Summit.

EE in USA
Market workshop #2 from 13.30-14.25
In the beginning of August, the Senate passed a comprehensive economic plan, which will result in driving even more green investments in the US. Experts have estimated the climate provisions of the plan will reduce US’s planet-heating emissions by about 40% by 2030, compared with 2005 levels.
The US is Denmark's largest export market with Danish companies exporting for more than 200 billion dollars to the American market in 2021, but energy exports are not driving these numbers yet - but the potential is huge.
This workshop will focus on energy efficiency and the opportunities for Danish companies in light of the recent political developments.
