An annual reduction of 500 ktCO₂e in emissions and 1 TWh savings per year in final energy consumption could be achieved in Hungary if we respond to the oil price shock not merely as a crisis, but as an industrial structural turning point. According to our latest study, the bioeconomy, circularity, and green electrification are no longer just climate policy targets, but critical components of national economic self-defence.
Hungary’s climate policy has reached a critical juncture: the 2040 targets, the ETS2, and the Social Climate Plan simultaneously offer rapid emissions reduction and carry significant social risks. The key question is: how can this ambitious target framework be achieved while keeping economic and social impacts manageable?
The Green Policy Center, under the umbrella of the MIRROR project, aims to help Hungary prepare for the process of reviewing its National Energy and Climate Plan – lasting till June 2024 – with modelling-based proposals. Below is a list of key messages and proposed targets for Hungary and sectoral policy proposals.
The Green Policy Center, under the umbrella of the MIRROR project, aims to help Hungary prepare for the 2023 review of its National Energy and Climate Plan with modelling-based proposals. Below is a list of key messages and proposed targets for Hungary and sectoral policy proposals.
The MIRROR project aims to develop evidence-based and impact-assessed policy proposals in the field of climate policy in the Member States, and to present them to government decision-makers and the society. The project currently involves 13 EU Member States. As of 1 April 2022, the Green Policy Center has taken over another national actor as a Hungarian participant, supported by the Regional Energy Economics Research Centre (REKK).
