Alongside the Netherlands, Hungary is also one of the few countries where solar energy covered more than 80% of electricity demand on over 70 days during peak generation periods in 2023. By spring 2025, Hungary had built around 7,800 megawatts of solar energy capacity, with four-fifths of that installed since 2020.
Hungary has made significant progress in the expansion of solar energy in recent years, both in the area of private solar installations and in the construction of large industrial solar power plants.
The installed solar PV capacity in Hungary as of 2018, was about 790 MWp. The target of the Hungarian Renewable Action Plan is to have 14.65% (2568 MW) of the electricity demand supplied by renewable energy sources by 2020.
The Hungarian government has set ambitious goals for the expansion of solar energy in the coming years. By 2030, the country's total capacity is expected to rise to 12 GW, doubling the current capacity. This target is an important step towards achieving the country's climate goals while diversifying the energy market.
As of early November 2024, the country has achieved an impressive total solar capacity of over 5,500 megawatts (MW), underscoring the importance of solar energy for Hungary's energy future.
Regarding solar energy resource potential, the sunshine hours in Hungary range from 1950–2150 hours annually, with the annual global horizontal solar radiation received being 1280 kWh/m 2. These values characterise Hungary as having a comparatively high potential for solar energy exploitation [ 3 ].
