It handles tasks related to energy production, supply and consumption and pursues measures to reduce CO2 emissions, contributing to Denmark's leadership in an affordable energy transition. The agency also works with international partners on energy transition in countries such as China, Mexico, Ukraine, Indonesia and South Africa, and seeks to improve the efficiency of the broader energy-supply system, including essential sectors like water, waste management and telecommunications. Founded in 1976, Energistyrelsen operates from offices in Copenhagen and Esbjerg and maintains a sizable professional workforce.
