In the previous round of the tender, more than 1,800 companies received nearly 28 billion forints in development funding, and another 2,000 companies may benefit in the new round, he said in a post on social media.

Subsidies range between 1.6 million and 100 million forints for projects such as installing a solar system, upgrading heating and thermal insulation, as well as replacing the doors and windows.
