Denmark has launched its Green Transition Alliance India (GTAI) initiative to enhance cooperation with India on sustainable energy solutions and expedite their shared commitment to achieving global carbon neutrality.
According to a statement from Denmark’s Embassy, “The new alliance, spearheaded by the Embassy and Consulate General of Denmark in India, is a strategic initiative that will play a crucial role in fostering sustainable energy growth in India by creating an ecosystem that encourages collaboration between businesses, government agencies, research institutions, and financial stakeholders from both countries.”
Rasmus Abildgaard Kristensen, Denmark’s Ambassador to India, stated, “The time for decisive action on climate change is now, and international collaboration is essential to drive the green transition. Danish companies bring valuable expertise to this global effort, and India’s growing capabilities in sustainable energy are critical to the success of this partnership. I’m delighted to see the Green Strategic Partnership making a significant impact. The Green Transition Alliance will further strengthen our mutual commitment to advancing green energy solutions, and I’m confident our joint efforts will be both impactful and inspiring for the future.”
Several leading Danish companies are joining the GTAI as members, including Grundfos, Copenhagen Infrastructure Partners, Baettr, Novonesis, MASH Makes, ROCKWOOL, and A.P. Moller-Maersk, all of which are prominent players in the energy industry.
The strategic partners also include industry experts, researchers, and thought leaders who will ensure that these initiatives remain innovative and aligned with industry trends in both India and Denmark. Partners include the Global Wind Energy Council (GWEC), Indo-Danish Chamber of Commerce (IDCC), Confederation of Danish Industry (DI), and the Indian Institute of Technology (IIT) Madras Energy Consortium.
This announcement comes at a pivotal moment as India intensifies its efforts to achieve net-zero emissions by 2070, while Denmark, ranked fourth in the global Climate Change Performance Index 2025, aims for net-zero by 2045. The GTAI is part of the Green Strategic Partnership (GSP) signed in 2020, which aims to support both countries in meeting their ambitious climate goals.
The GTAI will serve as a collaborative platform for key players in the global green transition, building on the success of the Green Fuels Alliance India (GFAI) and Wind Alliance India (WAI). The companies will be organized into three working groups focusing on Renewable Energy, Green Fuels, and Energy Efficiency.
