Hungary's National Hydrogen Strategy

Hungary’s National Hydrogen Strategy (hereinafter referred to as: Strategy) is ambitious, but provides a realistic vision of the future as it opens the way for the establishment of a hydrogen economy, therefore contributing to the achievement of decarbonisation goals and providing an opportunity for Hungary to become an active participant of the European hydrogen sector. On the long term, the Strategy focuses on “green” hydrogen, but in addition to hydrogen based on electricity generated using renewable resources, primarily solar energy, Hungary does not ignore opportunities for hydrogen production based on carbon-free energy accessed either through a nuclear basis or from the network. Additionally, in the short and medium term, a rapid reduction in emissions and the establishment of a viable hydrogen market will also require low-carbon hydrogen.
