#DanJørgensen “Our electrification rate has stagnated for the last decade. We need to electrify and we need to do it much faster,” he said."
Conflicted re: how much shit I should give any Danish politician as, to its credit, #Denmark is the only country among the "Hansa League" frauds to have denounced frugalism. We should welcome anyone seeing the light... But this is still a classic use case for the: "We're all trying to find the guy who did this" meme.

Fatih Birol said that Europe’s low electrification rate — electricity’s share of the energy consumed in the EU — of around 23 per cent is holding back the bloc’s competitiveness and economic “sovereignty”.
“This is in my view a major mistake for Europe,” Birol told the FT. “In general, I would have hoped and expected that Europe would have been more responsive to this crisis.”
