The Danish regions’ strategy for sustainable hospitals
In January 2024, Danish Regions published a new strategy for sustainable hospitals. With this strategy, the five Danish regions set a common goal: The regions will reduce hospitals’ consumption-based CO2 emissions by 50 percent in 2035 compared to 2022. Before 2050, it is also the regions’ ambition to become CO2 emission-free.

The Danish regions’ strategy for sustainable hospitals
The regions aim to lead the green transition of the Danish healthcare system. Achieving this goal is a complex task, as the main part of the regions’ CO2 emissions come from the products and services we purchase and use at the hospitals. With The Danish regions’ strategy for sustainable hospitals, launched in January 2024, all five regions in Denmark are now in the process of transitioning to greener and more sustainable hospitals.
