The organization must notify to the Danish Energy Agency without delay about disturbances that have significantly affected the provision of its services. The CSIRT must also be notified if an incident compromises the security of network and information systems, while Energinet must be notified of incidents affecting the electricity, gas, and hydrogen sectors.

All notifications must be submitted through the competent authority's designated digital solution. Specifically, cyber-related incidents must follow the CSIRT-specified process, while all other significant incidents must follow the Danish Energy Agency's designated process.

A disturbance is significant when at least one of the following occurs:

• disruption may cause serious operational disruptions to the company's services, including due to plant failures, labor disputes, or lack of deliveries crucial for society's energy supply
• disruption may cause serious financial losses for the affected company
• disruption may cause significant material or immaterial damage to related people or other organizations
• disruptions require activating the company's contingency plans, such as when a network or information system's confidentiality, integrity, availability, or authenticity is compromised
• disruption involves a reasonable suspicion or knowledge of intrusion, theft, sabotage, or espionage
• disruption requires external assistance for situation assessment, remediation, or recovery of the company's network and information systems

Organisaation olisi määriteltävä prosessi kaikkea virallista kirjallista viestintää varten Tanskan energiaviraston kanssa. Prosessilla on varmistettava, että kaikki viestintä, mukaan lukien ilmoitukset ja asiakirjat, hoidetaan viraston nimeämän digitaalisen itsepalveluratkaisun kautta. Prosessissa olisi myös määriteltävä, että kaikki tällainen viestintä on allekirjoitettava käyttämällä MitID Erhverv -digitaalista allekirjoitusta.
