The 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 and production to management it is a critical enabler for emerging trends such as sector integration, smart demand response, decentralisation, and distributed energy.

Therefore, State of Green, The Embassy of Denmark in The Hague, Danish Industry, as well as FME and InnovationQuarter, invite 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.
