Energy efficiency in Hungary begins at home
Energy efficiency in Hungary begins at home
Hungary could save 16 per cent of its total energy consumption by retrofitting all existing residential and public buildings, a study commissioned by the European Bank for Reconstruction and Development (EBRD) and financed by the European Union’s (EU) Structural Reform Support Programme says. This amount equals 122 Petajoule (PJ) and energy efficiency improvements on this scale would also make a significant contribution to achieving Hungary’s energy saving targets. The national energy and climate plan sets a cumulative final energy savings target for all economic sectors of 331 PJ between 2020 and 2030.
