Denmark helps China strengthen its 14th Five-Year Plan period

China’s rapid growth in renewable capacity, with wind and solar now accounting for around 60 percent of the country’s total installed power generation. 

China’s National Energy Administration has highlighted growing cooperation with Denmark in renewable energy as part of the country’s green transition achievements during the 14th Five-Year Plan period (2021–2025).

At a press conference in Beijing this week, officials said China had signed renewable energy agreements with more than ten countries, including Denmark, to advance collaboration on wind and solar power technologies. These agreements are framed under the Belt and Road Initiative and are intended to guide future joint projects in clean energy and innovation.

Denmark, a global leader in wind energy development, has long been a partner in advancing offshore wind and energy efficiency solutions. Chinese authorities noted that such cooperation has supported China’s rapid growth in renewable capacity, with wind and solar now accounting for around 60 percent of the country’s total installed power generation.

The partnership comes as China expands its role in the global energy transition. Over the past five years, Chinese exports of renewable energy technology and equipment have helped other countries cut an estimated 4.1 billion tonnes of carbon emissions. Cooperation with Denmark is expected to remain a key part of this effort, particularly in offshore wind and related technologies.
