Drifting energy: is the government waiting for a miracle weapon?

The article discusses Hungary's energy policy, highlighting the government's reliance on a system of utility price reductions without a coherent strategy. It notes recent progress in accessing EU funds and implementing smart meter programs but criticizes the lack of a comprehensive energy concept. The author argues that the current price reduction system distorts the energy market, encourages overconsumption, and burdens businesses with high energy costs. The minister's focus on sourcing cheaper energy raises questions about the underlying political and economic concessions expected in return. The piece calls for a clear vision and courage to abandon ineffective past policies to create a sustainable energy future.
