How I see here we have few question what we must answer so we will fill better.

1. Is it possible that any country be independent from oil? Now, NO, no chance.

2. What this article tell us? That Danish formula is good? No, it is not good. Windpower central technology is not profitable enough and not effective enough to use this kind of the energy production. Face it, wind power central is not profitable enough. Danish government build them becouase they don't have rivers in Denmark, they don't have chance to have electric thermo centrals. About oil in North Sea, I don't see how can some other country take the same formula when they don't have North Sea and especially not oil in sea. So much better job was made by "Oslo" about North Sea oil. But of course that Austria cannot use that formula when they don't have sea, not to mention oil.

So what is point of this article? Wind power central are not profitable at all, every country don't have a sea or oil, so what is point of this article?

About old Toyota and VW in Denmark? It is true.

About fake Scandinavian stats. Lets look number of the free days for employed people in Denmark and EU? In every country base for calculation is that one week have five work days, in Denmark is six. So on paper they have the most free days in EU when we look number of days, in reality they are not near top when we count that days in weeks. That is just one example of the fake stats, and they are so many.

Also all of those countries on papers have almost highest living standards in world, in reality they don't have that in Europe. Prices are in the sky, and everything is luxory for average Skandinavian.

So which energy Danes using in old VW or Toyota Starlet cars? Electricity or gasoline? Gasoline of course.

OK, lets be serious this time. This article about Danish "energy independence" is bullshit. I was live there more than ten years so I know. Polluting in Denmark is higher than in Northern Germany, wind power central produced by Danish companies like Vestas are not profitable enough to made profit, even Denmark is country of the wind, where wind is powerfull on the winter and on summer. Government fonds are behind wind industry in Denmark, not profit.

Anywhere cars are too expensive so most Danes pays a fortune for car what usually in other parts of Europe cost max few thousands EUR so usually they are driving old car which polluting air in Denmark.

I don't know, but this is advertisning article. Many who will visit country like Denmark will be very disappointed. On papers that country is one of the best in Europe, in reality it is not in the European top. So allways take with reserve stats from Skandinavia, becouase most of stats from that part of Europe is fake and it was created to advertise Skandinavian countries in the world. Reality is something much different. Germany, France or Italy are better all the way from any Skandi country?

Yes, wind production of the energy is OK, if that country have enough wind, even Denmark don't have wind enough to made that industry profitable, and it is perhaps country with most wind in Europe.

So mister cut, the bullshit with this article, and stop advertise Denmark out of the nothing.
