Profile
As one of the first countries in the world to implement environmental legislation, Denmark is today recognised as a global leader in responsible management of the environment.
In an effort to pass on this expertise, GREEN CITY DENMARK A/S was initiated by the Danish Ministry of Business and Industry in co-operation with the Ministry of the Environment and Energy, the aim being to establish a visible showcase for Danish environmental technology and know-how.
It was decided that the municipalities of Århus, Silkeborg, Ikast, Herning and Videbæk and the counties of Ringkjøbing and Århus - the area also referred to as "The Green Belt" - would act as the showcase, strongly complemented by a national network of interested companies, institutions and local councils that make up GREEN CITY DENMARK A/S.
GREEN CITY DENMARK A/S is organised as a limited liability company with more than 250 shareholders, comprising companies, institutions, municipalities, etc., from all over Denmark, and has an international network of co-operation partners both within the public and private sector.
