IBC SOLAR Energy connects 43 MWp utility-scale PV project to the grid in Hungary

“MET considers the growth in renewable power generation in Central and Eastern Europe as a core part of its business strategy going forward, whilst also supporting the energy transition away from coal in Europe. This project is a successful example of the implementation of our integrated strategy,” says Balázs Gábor Lehocz, Chairman of the Asset Management Board of MET Group.

Now, the country is catching up rapidly. The target issued by the EU-Directive 2009/28/EC for 2020 was surpassed as early as 2017 with a share of renewable energies of 13.3 per cent. Now, the new target for the share of renewable energies in the total energy mix is set for 14.65 per cent by the end of 2020. The grid connection of the new PV solar park will take Hungary a huge step forward towards reaching its target.
