    Denmark’s decades of expertise in wind energy meet Kansas’ thriving renewable energy landscape! This collaboration highlights the immense potential of transatlantic partnerships to drive innovation, build greener economies, and expand the future of wind energy across the Atlantic.

    Danish energy companies experience Kansas’ wind power growth first-hand!   This week, a delegation of representatives from Global Wind Service, DEIF, A-LEAF Specialized Consulting , HydraSpecma, SCANCON Encoders A/S, KK Wind Solutions, Altura – a Division of IRISNDT, FORCE Technology, and Ventoco are visiting Kansas to explore the state’s thriving wind energy sector and discuss opportunities for future collaborations.   Accompanied by Morten Siem Lynge, Consul General of Houston, and Alexander Burster, Wind Commercial Advisor, the group has gained valuable insights into Kansas’ energy ecosystems through dialogues with Evergy Energy Partners Kansas Central, Sunflower Electric Power Corporation, Greater Wichita Chamber of Commerce, Advanced Power Alliance, ITC Great Plains, LLC, Climate And Energy Project, Greater Wichita Partnership, Watco Companies LLC, and Kansas State University Technology Development Institute. Moreover, the group learned about market opportunities as well as established and upcoming wind energy projects in the area during meetings with local key industry stakeholder Siemens Gamesa.   In 2023, wind power generated 46% of Kansas’ electricity, and with its vast wind resources, the state is increasingly becoming a vital part of the US wind energy industry.   This week’s delegation provides a valuable chance for Danish innovators to share decades of experiences from Denmark with local counterparts, build partnerships, and collaborate on expanding the potential for wind energy on both sides of the Atlantic.    We want to thank Brad Reams, from GREAT PLAINS DEVELOPMENT AUTHORITY, and Laura Lombard, from , for coordinating and helping to get everything up and running, as well as everyone who participated in making this delegation a success!

    𝗔 𝗗𝗔𝗡𝗜𝗦𝗛 𝗛𝗢𝗨𝗦𝗜𝗡𝗚 𝗟𝗔𝗕 𝗖𝗢𝗠𝗘𝗦 𝗧𝗢 𝗧𝗛𝗘 𝗣𝗔𝗖𝗜𝗙𝗜𝗖 𝗡𝗢𝗥𝗧𝗛𝗪𝗘𝗦𝗧 The exchange of ideas and know-how between the Pacific Northwest and Denmark is strong! Such a great turn out in Seattle for the opening of the Danish Housing Lab exhibition. The Pacific Northwest Housing Lab tour is presented by Scan Design Foundation in partnership with the Embassy with the goal of sparking conversation on how to rethink housing through the ideas of the Housing Lab and inventive programming with local partners and Danish experts. The exhibited projects address some of the greatest challenges of our time: Climate changes, resource scarcity, new family patterns and loneliness on the rise. Common to the projects is that they will be realized as full-scale housing experiments in Denmark. Housing Lab will be touring four locations; Seattle Architecture Foundation, University of Washington College of Built Environments, Portland State University – School of Architecture, and Nordic Northwest in Portland. Housing Lab – Boliglaboratorium - was established in 2019 by the Danish Arts Foundation Statens Kunstfond and Realdania, and is designed as a collaborative platform that fosters new ways of living and building through experimental housing projects and cross-disciplinary knowledge exchange.   Fidelma McGinnFrederikke Møller Kristiansen ©Evan Chakroff 2024
