Danish industrial automation and energy infrastructure

Overview

Danish automation and industrial sectors are experiencing a period of technological transition and infrastructure-related challenges.

In the automation sector, companies are expanding through acquisitions and increased revenue. Nordomatic acquired Pro Bygningsautomatik to strengthen its market position in Copenhagen and Zealand, while Körber Supply Chain reported a 21 percent revenue increase to 633 million DKK. In the biotechnology field, Minerva Imaging has implemented robotic automation to resolve laboratory bottlenecks and reduce human exposure to radioactive materials.

However, industrial growth faces potential setbacks due to energy constraints. Major companies, including Novonesis, FF Skagen, and Stena Line, have reported difficulties regarding electricity grid limitations and the transition from fossil fuels. In response to these risks, Dansk Industri has proposed a shift toward state-directed energy planning to secure the electricity needs of the industrial sector.
