E.ON Expands Smart Meter Installation in Hungary

E.ON Hungária Group has launched a significant expansion of its smart meter infrastructure in Hungary, installing over 165,000 new devices in Transdanubia and Pest County, including Budapest. This effort is part of a larger initiative that has already seen 650,000 smart meters installed, with E.ON managing two-thirds of these installations. Funded by the Hungarian government through the Recovery and Resilience Facility (RRF) with an investment of approximately US$27 million, the project aligns with the country’s REPowerEU commitment. The government plans to support the installation of around 525,000 smart meters funded by the RRF, aiming for a total of about 800,000 units in collaboration with other companies.
