On May 18 Denmark will host North Sea Summit in Esbjerg

Saturday, May 7 2022

General – Summit

Energy ministers from Germany, Belgium, and the Netherlands, as well as the European Commissioner for Energy, will meet at the North Sea Summit in Esbjerg on 18 May to discuss how to accelerate the buildout of renewable energy in the North Sea.

During the summit, the ministers will present concrete plans for enhanced cooperation on the buildout of offshore wind and green hydrogen.

Following the Russian invasion of Ukraine, the need for a swift energy transition away from fossil fuels has never been clearer.

”The EU must become independent from Russian fossil fuels as fast as possible and the best way forward is for the European countries to work together to scale up and speed up the buildout of renewable energy in the North Sea. At this summit we will present some of the key solutions needed for Europe to make the ambitious transition to renewables and that is why I am looking very much forward to welcoming my fellow energy ministers in Esbjerg,” says Danish Minister of Climate and Energy, Dan Jørgensen.

The President of the European Commission, Ursula von der Leyen, is also participating in the summit alongside the German Chancellor, Olaf Schultz, the prime minister of the Netherlands, Mark Rutte, and the prime minister of Belgium, Alexander De Croo.
