Voluntary Cut in Electricity Usage Called for in Hungary Due to Heat Wave
- 29 Jun 2026 12:14 PM
For the safe and uninterrupted operation of electricity supply, the public is asked to reduce electricity consumption especially between 6 p.m. and 9 p.m., Minister of Economy and Energy Istvan Kapitany said in a post on social media late.
The minister asked the public to reduce the use of air conditioners during these three hours and instead cool their homes at night or in the early morning hours.
Kapitany said it is also worth scheduling the charging of various devices and the operation of household appliances with higher energy requirements for later hours, after 9:00 in the evening.
The minister said that the experts managing the Hungarian electricity system are working day and night to ensure continuous supply for everyone.
