This document summarizes an overview presentation given by Kristoffer Steen Andersen of the Danish Energy Agency on forecasting tools used for energy planning in Denmark. It introduces short and medium-term forecasting using the Danish Energy Outlook model, and long-term planning using the Energy System Scenarios and IntERACT models. The presentation outlines Denmark's energy policy goals for 2020 and 2035, including reducing energy consumption and increasing renewable energy. It also describes how the various models are used to assess the technical and economic feasibility of long-term energy systems and policies.
