Denmark has temporarily stopped approving new grid connections for data centers due to an overwhelming surge in requests that far exceed the country's electricity capacity. With about 60 gigawatts of projects pending against a peak demand of 7 gigawatts, data centers represent nearly a quarter of these requests. This move highlights growing energy challenges even in renewable-rich countries and raises concerns about competition for electricity between critical infrastructure and other sectors. The pause may influence other European nations as they balance AI investment with grid stability and energy security.
