Denmark’s government presented a plan to invest in renewable energy including wind power and biogas as the country seeks independence from oil, gas and coal by 2050.
By 2020, Denmark will more than double its wind power capacity to 42 percent of total energy production, the Copenhagen-based environment ministry said today in an e-mail. The Nordic country also wants to cut energy consumption by 6 percent by that year.
