Since August, nearly 50 percent of OMV Hungária’s filling stations have already been powered by solar panels. As a result of the investment, the wells will produce energy corresponding to the average annual energy consumption of 1,800 Hungarian households, which is roughly equivalent to the average annual carbon footprint of 273 Hungarian residents. The project is part of the OMV Group’s overall sustainability strategy, which aims to achieve carbon neutrality by 2050.

OMV Hungária has equipped its 100 filling stations in Hungary with solar panels as part of a large-scale green investment. The photovoltaic panels placed on top of the wells will produce a total of more than 4,500,000 kWh of energy annually, which corresponds to the annual average energy consumption of 1,800 Hungarian households. The solar panel systems will be able to generate almost half of the energy demand of the filling stations from renewable sources. Thanks to the energy produced, the carbon dioxide emissions of the filling stations are reduced by 1,200 tons per year – this is equal to the average annual carbon footprint of approximately 273 Hungarian residents.
