Budapest’s Solar Cadastre: Clear as Day for the Energy Transition

Topics: Energy Transition and Climate-Neutral Buildings

Countries: Germany Hungary

The EUKI project "Low carbon investments in Budapest" has created the first comprehensive solar cadastre for Budapest. This has analysed the photovoltaic potential of 345,000 roof surfaces - a total of 5,000 MW of installable capacity. This data-based foundation significantly exceeds the city's previous expansion targets and enables targeted investments in a low-carbon future. By the end of 2023, over 100,000 people had already used the platform - a clear signal of public interest and the need for comprehensible tools for the energy transition.
