New energy and climate strategy accepted in Hungary
Hungary’s National Energy and Climate Plan (NEKT) is being adapted in view of the changing international environment, including measures to significantly reduce emissions and increase the ratio of renewables in the national energy mix, the energy ministry said on Friday.
The revised plan is aimed primarily at reducing Hungary’s dependence from imports while moving the country closer to achieving its goals in climate neutrality and sustainability, the ministry said in a statement. Under the revised plan, Hungary would cut gross greenhouse gas emissions by at least 50 percent by 2030. The ratio of renewable resources would be raised to 29 percent from 21 percent, and that of solar energy to 12 gigawatts .
The ministry noted in the statement that investments related to measures contained in the revised NEKT would cost a total 4,000 billion forints (EUR 10.8bn). The ministry has drafted the revised plan after several rounds of consultations with industry players and civil organisations over the past two months. Under EU regulations, member states must submit their revised national energy and climate plans by June 30 in 2024.
This liberal left globalist climate ideology will also destroy Hungary and the quality of life of its population.
It shows what agenda this government is really serving.
I don’t know how people put up with this cr*p. There is nothing “green” about solar and wind; in fact, they are as bad for the environment, and sometimes worse, than what they purport to replace. They are also ludicrously expensive and commercially totally unviable without massive government subsidies (= your and my money). This blind, craven pursuit of the globalist-socialist “green” agenda is causing our quality of life to deteriorate. We are less mobile (as flights are or will get less affordable), our disposable income is significantly lower because of direct increases in energy prices and indirect increases in the prices of everything else dependent on cheap energy, we are unable to afford to heat our homes in winter or cool them in summer. And just wait till they start adding “green” levies on meat, gas stoves, and everything else Uncle Klaus and St. Greta disapprove of.
