The Self-Government Act builds on the 1978 Greenland Home Rule Act which previously defined the relationship and fields of responsibility attributed to Greenland and Denmark, recognising that the people of Greenland is a people pursuant to international law with the right to self-determination. The Act lays out the relationship between Denmark and Greenland with a will to foster equality and mutual respect between both the Greenland Self-Government and the Danish Government.

The Self-Government Act therefore lays out the principles of the present relationship between Greenland and Denmark and provides a legal basis for Greenland to take over additional authority from Denmark including over matters exclusively related to Greenlandic domestic affairs and legislative and executive power in the area of natural resources. The Act fixes the annual subsidy from Denmark to the Greenland Self-Government at about DKK 3 440 million on 2009 prices and wage levels. A schedule is attached to the Act which determines the timeline by which various responsibilities should be transferred over from Denmark to Greenland.

In the area of mineral resources, the Act affirms that all revenues from mineral exploitation in Greenland’s subsoil should accrue to Greenland, unless annual revenue from mineral resources exceeds DKK 75 million in which case the Danish government’s annual subsidy to the Self-Government of Greenland will be reduced according to specific rules. If the Danish government’s annual subsidy to the self-government authorities is reduced to zero, negotiations on the future economic relationship between Denmark and Greenland will begin.

The Self-Government Act forms the basic framework upon which much of the Greenlandic legislation is based since 2009.

Oil Industry Braces for Years-Long Iran War

Oil producers, traders, and refiners are bracing for a prolonged war between the United States and Iran in the Persian Gulf with little to no hope of a quick resolution. By extension, they are also preparing for higher prices for longer, a theme present at this year’s edition of the Asia Pacific Petroleum Conference. Reuters’ Clyde Russell reported this week that the mood at APPEC was not particularly cheerful as hostilities in the Middle East escalate once again, suggesting achieving peace would be quite a challenge. The Reuters columnist…

Stolen Electricity is Powering Illegal Crypto Farms Across the Globe

Electricity theft is a global problem, and it’s getting more dire all the time. While the problem is most common in developing countries, where grid infrastructure is limited and utilities and state authorities have lower oversight capacities, developed countries are not immune either. This theft can occur in many forms and at many scales, from individuals tapping into power lines to power their individual residences to large-scale and sophisticated theft schemes to power entire cryptocurrency mining farms. Just this week, Mexican authorities…

The Race to Solve Nuclear Energy’s Biggest Problem

Disposing of waste materials from nuclear energy operations remains a complex task with no perfect solution. As countries worldwide have grown their nuclear power capacity, many governments are still struggling to decide on the best solution…

Iran’s Security Crackdown Runs Into Resistance From Within

Iran's parliament is trying to turn fears of foreign infiltration into law. But as lawmakers work through the legislation, the debate is exposing an increasingly awkward question for the Islamic Republic: How far should the state go in policing Iranians' contact with the outside world? At the center of that debate is Parliament Speaker Mohammad Baqer Qalibaf, who, at least publicly, is doing a balancing act. He has defended the need for tougher measures against foreign infiltration while warning that the current draft of the legislation goes too…

Why More Homes Are Switching From Gas to Heat Pumps

Heat pumps are becoming an increasingly popular alternative to gas-powered central heating systems and are increasingly being used in new construction, often driven by government incentives. A heat pump uses technology similar to that found in a refrigerator or an air conditioner, extracting heat from a source, such as the surrounding air, and amplifying and transferring the heat to where it is needed. As most of the heat is transferred rather than generated, heat pumps are far more efficient than conventional heating technologies such as boilers…
