Biomas based energy co-generation in Denmark 1999.06

For heat and emission biomass, dissected in the global energy consumption accounted for 14%, but this is because the direct combustion use of firewood is still being conducted in the developing region. On the other hand, the EU-wide creation is still less than 2.5%, but since the 1970s, it has been positioned as an important issue in the EC research plan, with the provision of renewable energy that is less environmentally Development is being promoted for the purpose of development of technology.

Among them, it is Denmark to be active in the introduction of the biomass based co-generation (CHP). As in the former Japan, the policy of energy self-sufficiency has been promoted since the oil shock of two degrees in the 1970s in the Demark which depended on the import of 90% of energy. In 1985, "The introduction of public Energy that does not use nuclear power generation" was passed by the diet, and it was raised as a national policy to use renewable energies centering on wind and biomass. The Denmark boasts an agricultural self-sufficiency rate of 300%.
