Heat Network Regulation, zoning and broader policy
Through the Heat Network Transformation Programme, the government is enacting legislation and developing policies and regulations to ensure that heat networks can contribute towards reaching net zero. By designating zones where heat networks are expected to offer the lowest-cost solution for decarbonising heat, local communities will have the tools to accelerate the development of heat networks, ensuring that more homes and businesses can access greener, cheaper heat.This includes improving consumer protection, creating the conditions to grow the market, lowering emissions, improving the performance of heat networks, and building up skills in the sector to encourage investment and jobs…

Promotion of Combined Heat and Power (CHP)
The Electricity Law of 2002 required the Hungarian electricity transmission company (MAVIR) and electricity distribution companies to purchase electricity produced from renewable sources and from small scale CHP at minimum guaranteed prices, or market prices above the given limits. The electricity produced by CHPs is guaranteed a preferential purchase price, though such price may be paid only in case of satisfying real heat demands. The law covers both combined heat and power generation generated in power plant units of capacity no larger than 6 MW and electricity generation from renewable energy sources. Targetted activities: - district heating, - non-district heating combined…
