There are wide-ranging opportunities for an environmentally sustainable restart of the economy following the pandemic situation due to the coronavirus, according to the proposals received at the Hungarian National Bank’s (MNB) call for consultation – the central bank told MTI on Friday.

The MNB announced that an extremely useful written proposal had been received for its consultation from 16 non-governmental organizations and environmental scientists, climate protection and energy experts.

Proposals – such as energy modernization of the domestic building stock, boosting renewable energy production, greening agriculture, creating short supply chains in various industries and ideas for water management developments – all indicate that there would be ample scope for innovative, green economic recovery.
