Energy efficiency

In full awareness of our country’s secure energy supply and its responsibility for environmental protection, MVM Mátra Energia Zrt. pays special attention to the energy efficiency. On the one hand, it strives to achieve this during the extraction, transport and transformation of the energy of its fuel, the generation of electricity. It strives to excavate the lignite used for electricity generation, then to transport it into the power plant with as little energy as possible, and to make the most valuable kind of energy of it, the electricity in the most economical way possible.


Furthermore, the company considers it important to spread the energy and environment-conscious approach among its employees and those interested in the company's activities, therefore draws attention to the website https://www.enhat.mekh.hu/ of the Hungarian Energy and Public Utility Regulatory Authority developed on the basis of law, which contains much useful information to help increase energy efficiency.


The Government of Hungary strives to achieve end-use energy savings of 1.5% per year at national level by 2020 among other things through policy measures defined by law. The Energy Efficiency Act and the related legislation - which also determine obligations and opportunities for large companies - have been adapted to this end.
