Updated: 04.01.2019
In general, the grid operators shall act on their own responsibility and expand their grids to the extent necessary. If a grid operator fails to satisfy his obligation to expand the grid, the Ministry for Climate and Energy shall delegate responsibility for the expansion of the grid to Energinet.dk (§ 20 Act 1009/2018). The grid operator is not obliged to the plant operators to expand his grid.
