Hungary’s unexpected opportunity
Hungary’s strategic role in the transport of Russian gas to Europe has grown significantly following the phasing out of Nord Stream pipelines and the shutdown of the Russian-Ukrainian-Slovak transit. The Turkish Stream pipeline, entering the EU via Hungary’s Serbian border, remains the sole route for Russian gas to Europe. Recent investments in interconnectors, including a Hungarian-Slovenian agreement in 2023, have further enhanced Hungary’s gas infrastructure, tripling its value. Market experts suggest Hungary could become a major gas trading hub if it improves regulatory predictability and reduces trader-deterring fees like the surveillance charge of the MEKH (Hungarian Energy & Utilities Regulatory Agency). With its strengthened position, Hungary has the potential to become a regional leader in the gas market.
