Centralisation and decentralisation in strategic municipal energy planning in Denmark

► There is a large variety of energy-related activities in the 11 municipal energy and climate plans. ► Only few plans contain all relevant sectors and activities in relation to a 100% RES. ► Neglected areas are private transport, system regulation/integration and private buildings. ► There is an acute need for coordination of municipal energy planning at the central level. ► Strategic energy planning should integrate national policy with municipal energy planning.
