Portfolio.hu organizes for the third time its unique regional energy conference focusing on investments in the area of renewable, green energies. Due to the obligations undertaken towards the European Union a new wave of green energy investments will have to be started in Hungary as well in the near future. With the coming into force of the Hungarian new renewable support system (METÁR) being under development, a line of developments may get nearer to implementation. Therefore it is worthwhile to get appropriately prepared already now for managing the expectable financing challenges.
