  Scalar fields which are favorite among the possible candidates for the dark
energy usually have degenerate minima at $\pm \phi_{min}$. In the presented
work, we discuss a two Higgs doublet model with the non-degenerate vacuum named
inert uplifted double well type two-Higgs doublet model (UDW-2HDM) for the dark
energy. It is shown that when the both Higgs doublets lie in their respective
true minima then one Higgs doublet can cause the current accelerated expansion
of the Universe.
