Danish Parliament adopts electricity grid emergency plan, putting data centers at back of the queue
Denmark's Parliament has adopted what is described as an "emergency plan" for the electricity grid, according to Data Center Dynamics on 2026-10-07. Under the plan, data centers are placed at the back of the queue. The measures were first suggested during the summer.

Data center builders and AI infrastructure leads with Danish sites in planning should check how the new queue priority affects their grid access timelines.
