09.09.2013 Denmark's largest offshore wind farm, Anholt Offshore Wind Farm, has been officially inaugurated.
With its 400MW in total, the wind farm generates electricity corresponding to the annual consumption of approximately 400,000 Danish households.
At the inauguration, Her Majesty the Queen of Denmark officially put the wind turbines of Anholt Offshore Wind Farm into operation.

DONG Energy, which has developed, erected and will be operating Anholt Offshore Wind Farm, owns 50 per cent of the wind farm. PensionDanmark owns 30 per cent and PKA owns 20 per cent.
The foundations, towers and turbines are all developed and produced in Denmark. Anholt Offshore Wind Farm is world-class Danish engineering, and a manifestation of Denmark's leading position within offshore wind power.

Wind energy passes 30%.
By the end of 2012 wind energy covered more than 30% of Denmark's electricity consumption. Denmark is thus still well on its way toward the target of 50% wind energy in 2020, and remains the country in the world that has the highest share of wind energy in the electricity system.
The share of 30% wind energy in the electricity consumption is an increase of approx. 2 percentage points compared to 2011.
