Greater Use of Geothermal Energy Ahead in Hungary - Doubled Within A Decade?
The European Union's energy policy can significantly help Hungary to make greater use of geothermal energy, Energy Minister Csaba Lantos said on Monday in Brussels before the meeting of the Transport, Telecommunications and Energy (TTE) Council.

Lantos said geothermal energy currently covers 6pc of Hungary energy consumption and he expressed his hope its share can be doubled within a decade.

During Monday’s meeting, among other things, energy ministers will be presented a report on the future of geothermal energy, they will hold a discussion on the future of energy policy in view of a genuine energy union and the Commission and the Hungarian presidency will provide follow-up information to the EU action plan on grids.

The project is set to wind up next year and includes improving the conditions for leisure boating on the lake and replacing the tourist information board system.
