About the time in København
If you are coordinating from another country, the shortcut is the working window: a normal København day of 09:00–17:00 falls between 07:00–15:00 UTC. Convert your own hours into UTC once and you can tell at a glance whether someone there is likely to be at their desk.
Sunrise today lands at 05:53 and sunset at 08:33 local time, giving 14h 40m of daylight. Those figures come from the city's own coordinates (55.67, 12.57) rather than a country-wide average, so they match what you would actually see from a window in København.
Around 541,011 people live in København, and all of them keep the same civil time, so the reading above applies to the whole urban area — not just the city centre.
