In 1973 Denmark, with virtually no production from indigenous resources, relied on imported oil for 90 per cent of its energy supplies. By 1980 the figure was down to 67 per cent. Coal imports and consumption increased five times between 1973 and 1980. With 10 million tons per year, Denmark currently ranks among the biggest importers of steam coal in the world. Between 1973 and 1979 real GNP increased by 12 per cent whereas total energy consumption was up only 6 per cent.
