We reported in January that, after a decade-long wait, regulatory barriers to the establishment and expansion of wind farms in Hungary were lifted thanks to a package of legislation that entered into force on 1 January 2024. . Hungary's renewable energy market is experiencing steady growth, with renewables accounting for over 13% of the country's total energy consumption in 2022. This is expected to reach 30% by 2030, driven by government initiatives, declining costs of renewable energy technologies, and growing consumer. . In 2023, nuclear was the largest single source of generation (about mid-40% share). The legislation both reduced the protection zone for wind farms from 12 km. . Hungary's solar capacity is projected to exceed 8 GW by the second quarter of 2025. According to the Hungarian Energy and Public Utility Regulatory Authority (MEKH), this remarkable growth stems from a combination of extensive large-scale solar projects and eased restrictions on residential. .

The Hungarian government has been actively working to promote solar energy through various regulatory changes. In February 2024, it launched a support scheme to encourage small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) to invest in solar energy.
oth market participants and potential financiers. Thus, on the whole, there is currently no substantial incentive to use Hungary's re-newable energy resources for heat production in addition to electricity; whereas, 29% of Hungary's final energy consumption can be attributed to the residential sector
Policy Direction Hungary's energy policy continues to emphasise a low-carbon electricity mix (~90% nuclear + renewables by 2030), as reflected in the updated NECP. The government remains committed to grid security and import reduction, while scaling renewables primarily through solar PV, reopened wind and biomass/biogas.
Hungary's solar capacity is on course to exceed 8 GW by mid-2025, thanks to extensive large-scale solar projects and increased residential installations. With ongoing regulatory support and financial incentives, the country is well-positioned to achieve its renewable energy targets and significantly reduce its carbon footprint.
