The total capacity of the MET’s HSP-owned Danube and Kaba Solar Parks, already up and running, combined with the output of the solar parks in Buzsák, Gerjen, and Söjtör, still under development and construction, is expected to reach 237 MWp by the end of 2022. This is equal to the electricity consumption of 100,000 Hungarian households.
MET Group is continuously working on expanding its renewable energy portfolio. MET plans to finance this expansion, focusing on Central, Eastern and Southern Europe, with the help of the bond program.
“The sustainability endeavours that affect the entire world can be realised only with energy efficiency measures and rapid growth in the utilization of renewable energy. In addition, our energy consumption is not decreasing, and the greening of industries will require further expansion in electricity generation. Political commitments and moves by the financial investment sector have already started the transition to a green economy. As energy investors, we believe it is our responsibility to significantly increase investment in renewable energy production,” explained Balázs Gábor Lehőcz, Chairman of the Asset Management Board of MET Group.
