How will Hungary's subsidy scheme affect battery energy storage?
The Hungary panel discussion at the event. Image: Solar Media. Hungary's subsidy scheme for energy storage will drive huge growth in battery energy storage system (BESS) deployments over the next few years.
Is Hungary a good market for energy storage subsidies?
Moderator Nikita Chandrashekar, director at advisory Augusta & Co, said the scheme made Hungary an attractive market: “It is probably one of the most advanced subsidies schemes to bring energy storage forward. So from a revenue perspective, perhaps, unlike some other markets, the business case in Hungary seems pretty well developed.”
How much of Hungary's energy consumption should come from res?
Under Hungary's National Action Plan for the Utilisation of Renewable Energy 2010-2020 (NAP), 14.65% of Hungary's primary energy consumption by 2020 should come from RES. This target is more ambitious than the commitment made by Hungary under the RES Directive 4, which was 13%.
