Heating up the Twin Transition: Follow-up day event
About
Digitalisation of the Danish District Heating Sector
Get inspired by 18 cases of digitalisation and data-driven operations from Denmark’s district heating sector.
Discover hereThe potential for digitalisation in district heating and energy efficiency in both Denmark and Netherlands is considerable. Digitalisation is the key to unlocking improved efficiencies across the entire energy supply chain, from planning, production to management, and is a critical enabler for emerging trends such as sector integration, smart demand response, decentralization, and distributed energy.
Therefore, State of Green, The Embassy of Denmark in The Hague, the Confederation of Danish Industry, as well as FME and InnovationQuarter, are inviting you to take part in a course of events and initiatives that will bring together market leaders and stakeholders from Denmark and the Netherlands.
The first event has already taken place in The Hague on 13 June, where insights and experiences were shared, and valuable connections made. To follow up, it is our pleasure to invite you to a full day event in Copenhagen, for presentations, site-visits and dialogue with partners working at the forefront of digitalisation in district heating and energy efficiency in buildings – in Denmark and the Netherlands.
Danish stakeholders:
- Stakeholders at the forefront of the Twin Transition
- SMEs with innovative Solutions
- Research Institutions
- Public Authorities
Who should join?
- District heating utilities, component manufacturers & contracting companies

Site visit at EnergyLab Nordhavn
EnergyLab Nordhavn is a full-scale smart city energy lab demonstrating how electricity and heating, energy-efficient buildings and electric transport can be integrated into an intelligent, flexible, and optimized energy system. It is situated in Copenhagen’s newest neighbourhood turning a previous harbour and logistics hub into a green and liveable city. Consisting of 12 public and private partners, the project works with local residents to develop solutions to the challenge of integrating large volumes of renewable energy into the grid to meet transportation, heating and electricity needs.
