For a moment I wonder if I\u2019m hallucinating.<\/p>\n<p>What are wind turbines doing so close to civilization and adjacent to Denmark\u2019s main airport?<\/p>\n<p>Back in the United States, I have to travel far beyond my Washington suburb to spot any signs of wind energy. In Denmark, it\u2019s ever-present.<\/p>\n<p>You can\u2019t drive more than a few kilometers on the country\u2019s flat roads without seeing a turbine. They are fully integrated into society and part of the landscape everywhere.<\/p>\n<p>And that\u2019s not by accident.<!--more--><\/p>\n<p><b>From zero to 30% renewables in 30 years. How?<\/b><\/p>\n<p>During my 10-day visit with my brother and his Danish family at the end of July, I witnessed a society where the political debate isn\u2019t over a &#8220;war on coal&#8221; or whether climate change is real. I saw a society that has proudly and vigorously embraced the clean energy future and is racing toward it.<\/p>\n<p>Accelerating from nearly zero percent as recently as the mid-80s, wind power now provides about 30 percent of Denmark\u2019s electricity. And the Danes aren\u2019t done. They have plans to grow that number to 50 percent by 2020 and to be 100 percent renewable by 2050.<\/p>\n<p>All of this \u2013 and more \u2013 is possible here in the United States, too, believe it or not. We enjoy some of the world\u2019s best wind and solar resources.<\/p>\n<p>But despite our rapid wind and solar energy growth in recent years, we\u2019ve only just begun to tap these clean energy treasures.<\/p>\n<p>So how did Denmark manage to ramp up clean energy when we&#8217;re just getting started?<\/p>\n<p><b>One: Wind energy was made a national priority<\/b><\/p>\n<p>Denmark&#8217;s clean energy progress began in response to the oil crises of the 1970s. In 1973, the year I was born, 95 percent of Denmark\u2019s energy consumption was based on imported oil. Initially, Denmark responded to the 1973 and 1979 oil crises by transitioning to coal, which still generates about half of Denmark\u2019s electricity.<\/p>\n<p>Then, the Danish government saw an opportunity to build a new industry. Through a combination of national policies and subsidies, and in concert with local communities and utilities, the country made wind energy a national priority. By 1990, Danish wind energy was ready to explode.<\/p>\n<p><b>Two: Subsidies allowed market to grow<\/b><\/p>\n<p>Denmark introduced a fixed feed-in tariff in 1993 to make installation of wind power competitive, an economic incentive that allowed the market to grow. Danish wind projects also received a refund from the Danish carbon tax, and a partial refund on the nation\u2019s energy tax.<\/p>\n<p>The cumulative effect of these refunds doubled the payment to wind projects for the first five years of their operations, according to the International Renewable Energy Agency. By 2000, Danish wind capacity had increased more than seven-fold to 2,390 megawatts.<\/p>\n<p>Eight years later, the Danish government developed an energy agreement that included the installation of two big offshore wind farms of 200 megawatts each.<\/p>\n<p><b>Three: Consumers helped pay for wind<\/b><\/p>\n<p>In 2009, Denmark introduced an environmental premium of $0.05\/kWh and added a $0.004\/kWh compensation to balance the costs of wind energy.<\/p>\n<p>It meant that consumers paid for the costs of connecting offshore wind farms, with financing managed by the Danish Energy Agency. As a result of these policies, wind energy continues to grow in Denmark, bringing its goal of 100-percent renewables by 2050 within sight.<\/p>\n<p><b>If the Danes can do it, so can we<\/b><\/p>\n<p>This takes us back to the U.S., a nation that has historically led the world on innovation and economic leadership.<\/p>\n<p>Over the last five years, net solar electricity generation increased more than 10 times. Net wind electricity more than doubled, making the U.S. one of the fastest-growing wind energy markets in the world.<\/p>\n<p>And yet, wind accounts for just 5 percent of our energy and solar less than 1 percent. This is unfortunate, considering that we have enough wind energy potential in the lower 48 alone to power America\u2019s current electricity consumption nine times over, according to the National Renewable Energy Laboratory.<\/p>\n<p>The NREL also estimates that our total solar potential is an astounding 100 times greater than our current electricity consumption.<\/p>\n<p>Just imagine what we could do if our political leaders had the same vision as the Danes. Imagine where we could be in 10 or 20 years if we looked to Denmark as a model for fully integrating government leadership with local communities and utilities.<\/p>\n<p>Thanks to the Danish experiment, we have a blueprint. And this American environmentalist is inspired and eager to see the Danish model spread.<\/p>\n<p><em>This commentary originally appeared on our <a href=\"http:\/\/www.edf.org\/blog\/2014\/08\/12\/blown-away-wind-power-denmark-model-clean-energy\">EDF Voices blog<\/a>.<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>By: Sam Parry, director of online membership and activism I look out the window of the crowded Scandinavian Airlines plane \u2013 bleary-eyed after a sleepless, 8-hour flight \u2013 as it makes its final approach to the Copenhagen airport one recent morning.
