Greenhouse Gas Reduction Targets Exceeded By Hungary
- 26 Sep 2014 9:00 AM
Greenhouse gas emission in 2012 was 36% less than in 1990 and 46% less than in 1985-87.
In the Kyoto protocol Hungary undertook the obligation to reduce emission by 6% by 2012.
For the period until 2020, the EU and Hungarian target of 20% cut was also exceeded by 2012.
Experts say Hungary has made good progress in achieving its target of generating 14.65% of electricity from renewable sources by 2020.
The ratio was already 9.6% in 2012 which means that Hungary outperformed the pro rata target.
