05-08-2013 - Between April 25-27 took place the 7th RENEXPO® international energy trade fair.
At the opening ceremony of the exhibition, Pál Kovács State Secretary reminded that Hungary has proposed to increase the share of renewable energy sources to 14.65 % by 2020. According to Kovacs this rate is now by 9.3 %, so Hungary is on the right track to meet the energetic commitments. The State Secretary drew attention to the fact that the primary energy consumption in Hungary is committed itself to a 10 % reduction until 2020, which has been completed in 2012 - it was 10.9 % lower. He emphasized that energy saving and efficiency, emissions reduction and sustainability goals can be only achieved if it will be adjusted to the country's capabilities for using renewable energy sources, fossil and nuclear energy.
