Your project is built locally. Know the local risks before you commit.
Investors and developers are often far from the sites they back, yet local conditions decide whether a project succeeds. Terrein assesses the political, administrative and local sentiment risk of renewable energy, energy storage, data centre and other infrastructure projects in Denmark.
Three common barriers to successful projects
- 01
Politics
Every large infrastructure project needs a local plan adopted by a council vote. Several large renewable energy and infrastructure projects have recently been dropped at this stage.
- 02
Administration
Processing times, environmental assessment requirements and municipal capacity vary widely, and a slow process can cost years.
- 03
Local opposition
Organised resistance delays hearings and shifts council majorities.
New requirements from the TSO for access to the grid queue make careful project selection more crucial than ever.
The Terrein report
An assessment of one project or site:
- 01
Bottom line: overall risk, the main drivers, and the next decision date.
- 02
Political risk: the council's composition after the 2025 election and how each party has voted on similar projects.
- 03
Administrative risk: planning status, processing times and requirements in this municipality, and the milestones ahead.
- 04
Local sentiment: hearing responses, organised groups, local media, and how comparable projects fared.
