The current energy system based on fossil fuels is one of the most damaging human activities on the environment. A radical change is needed in energy planning as a critical step towards a system that could take socio-ecological systems into a safe environmental space. Denmark is recognized as being one of the world leaders regarding renewable energy transition. In 2020, Denmark produced 50% of its total electricity from solar and wind energy.
