The Hungarian Ministry of Energy has announced that around 50 grid-scale energy storage projects with a cumulative capacity of 440 MW have received subsidy support through a tender launched in February this year.
With funds obtained through a previous program, transmission system operator MAVIR is already building the country's largest energy storage system – a 20 MW project in Szolnok, central Hungary, the ministry said. It added that several projects with even bigger capacity will be installed under the tender concluded a few days ago.
Hungary has set a target of 12 GW of solar capacity by the start of the next decade. However, grid capacity shortfalls have been dire, hampering primarily the rollout of large-scale solar. The country’s revised National Energy and Climate Plan envisages the construction of a total of 1 GW of storage capacity by 2030.
The subsidies are secured via the National Recovery and Resilience Plan and the state budget. They consist of non-refundable investment support and income compensation for the construction of energy storage facilities and their operation for at least ten years. The operational support will be provided through two-way contracts for difference.
