Emission Trading Scheme

Transport

The EU member countries have devised a scheme for greenhouse gas emission allowance trading, effective from the start of 2005.

Part of the Energy Agreement of 21 February 2008 on Danish energy policy for 2008-11 is that DKK 10 mill. per year for 2008-09 and DKK 5 mill. per year for 2010-12 is to be appropriated for a test scheme for electric cars.

National Allocation Plan

Climate Change

The Danish National Allocation Plan (NAP) is a central element in Denmark’s commitments to reducing its greenhouse gas emissions. A NAP is actually a meticulous description of the status of a country’s climate efforts.

Climate change leads to increasing temperatures, melting ice, rising water levels, greater precipitation, and greater risk of drought and other extremes.
