Data from transmission system operator MAVIR shows that solar energy production in Hungary reached a new peak on June 13, producing enough energy to serve the country's domestic electricity requirements entirely from renewables. Hungary has deployed almost 8 GW of solar capacity, according to the country's deputy minister of energy, Gàbor Czepek.
Another renewable source utilized in large amounts in Hungary is biomass. The NECP proposes a significant increase in solar PV capacity but no increase in wind power capacity. Wind power capacity expansion has been blocked by the government for more than ten years, a ban that is without reasonable geographic or economic reasoning [ 8, 9 ].
Wind and solar resources should receive more attention in the planning of the Hungarian energy transition. However, the expansion of these vRES needs to happen simultaneously with the restructuring of the whole system [ 27 ].
The input data to the model is derived mainly from national energy balance and other freely available databases which makes the approach easy to adapt and replicate. The following conclusions and recommendations are relevant to the Hungarian energy system.
The Middelgrunden offshore wind farm – with 20 turbines the world's largest offshore farm at the time it was built in 2000 – is 50% owned by the 10,000 investors in the Middelgrunden Wind Turbine Cooperative, and 50% by the municipal utility company, as is the Avedøre near-shore turbines.
In 2024, wind power made up 59.3% of total electricity generation in Denmark, up from 56% in 2020, 20% in 2010 and 11% in 2000. This contributes to the government's target of 100% renewable power generation by 2030.
In 2021, the Thor offshore contract was the first time a developer had to pay connection costs in Denmark, and also pay the state. Wind power displaces coal, oil and gas to some degree, reducing running cost for fossil fuels.
