When former energy minister Lars Chr. Lilleholt (V) two years ago, gave permission to establish the Viking Link, he told that that was not counted on the elkablets black effect on the environment.
But now can Jyllands-Posten to tell that the ministry of Energy and had actually been given a charge sent from the energy Grids, which showed that 'the level of CO2 increases' with 2.5 million tonnes annually because of the Viking Link.
Regardless of formulated Energy and the Danish energy agency a reply to the 'there is not made a total CO2 calculation', as the minister the day after to have approved the cable was asked by the DR, how it would affect the CO2 emissions.
And when the Danish Parliament asked the minister about the same, he replied, that there was not date on it.
When the CO2 equation later came forward, stressed Lars Chr. Lilleholt, that 'the information was neither accessed him or the ministry'.
But it was the well, tells Jyllands-Posten.
The current environment minister, Dan Jørgensen (S), says that the Danish Parliament have got an answer, which is 'not true'.
- I have implored the ministry, that I find it objectionable, he says, according to Jyllands-Posten.
In a written comment says Lars Chr. Lilleholt, that 'it is unsatisfactory that not being given correct information'.
- I trust that the minister is now doing everything he can, to prevent it from happening again, he says, according to the newspaper.
the Viking Link is a cable between Denmark and great Britain, which will send power to the Uk.
the Cable says, according to Jyllands-Posten to increase CO2 emissions, because the cheaper German coal, which pollute more, will go through the wire and replace the british natural gas.
Just three to four percent of the flow through the cable will come from Denmark, researchers estimate at Aalborg University according to the newspaper.
the Dea waiting for that Viking Link from 2030 will contribute to reduce the CO2 level.
