If they fall short of the mandated savings, they must pay a penalty. To meet their targets, these energy traders can support your company, municipality, or association in implementing energy efficiency projects \u2014 such as lighting upgrades, process optimisation, and other measures \u2014 that contribute to reducing Hungary\u2019s energy consumption and promoting a more sustainable future.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n<p class=\"gb-text\">A Certified Energy Saving (HEM) is considered a tradable asset, meaning it can be sold \u2014 typically generating millions of forints in revenue for the party implementing the energy-saving project.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"gb-text\">Axing Zrt. offers a fully comprehensive service from identifying initial saving opportunities to auditing and certifying the investment or measure, and even sourcing potential buyers. Thanks to our extensive network within the energy market, we guarantee that the certified energy savings we deliver are sold at the most favourable possible price.  <\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div>\n<div class=\"gb-element-e6def2fd subtitle-hero-inner\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-eds-animate-it-block eds-animate-block-save\"><div class=\"eds-animate animated edsanimate-sis-hidden \" data-eds-entry-animation=\"fadeIn\" data-eds-entry-delay=\"0\" data-eds-entry-duration=\"1\" data-eds-entry-timing=\"linear\" data-eds-exit-animation=\"\" data-eds-exit-delay=\"0\" data-eds-exit-duration=\"0.5\" data-eds-exit-timing=\"linear\" data-eds-repeat-count=\"1\" data-eds-keep=\"yes\" data-eds-animate-on=\"scroll\" data-eds-scroll-offset=\"40\">\n<h2 class=\"gb-text\">Questions and Answers<\/h2>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div>\n<div class=\"wp-block-eds-animate-it-block eds-animate-block-save\"><div class=\"eds-animate animated edsanimate-sis-hidden \" data-eds-entry-animation=\"fadeIn\" data-eds-entry-delay=\"0\" data-eds-entry-duration=\"1\" data-eds-entry-timing=\"linear\" data-eds-exit-animation=\"\" data-eds-exit-delay=\"0\" data-eds-exit-duration=\"0.5\" data-eds-exit-timing=\"linear\" data-eds-repeat-count=\"1\" data-eds-keep=\"yes\" data-eds-animate-on=\"scroll\" data-eds-scroll-offset=\"40\">\n<div class=\"gb-accordion\">\n<div class=\"gb-accordion__item gb-accordion__item-7d6c4b76\">\n<div role=\"button\" tabindex=\"0\" class=\"gb-accordion__toggle gb-accordion__toggle-fef92c63\" id=\"gb-accordion-toggle-fef92c63\">\n<h3 class=\"gb-text gb-text-3bd796f2\">What Is the Legal Framework for EKR Compliance?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<span class=\"gb-accordion__toggle-icon gb-accordion__toggle-icon-bfdb9ab9\"><span class=\"gb-accordion__toggle-icon-open\"><svg aria-hidden=\"true\" viewbox=\"0 0 256 256\"><rect width=\"256\" height=\"256\" fill=\"none\"\/><polyline points=\"208 96 128 176 48 96\" fill=\"none\" stroke=\"currentColor\" stroke-linecap=\"round\" stroke-linejoin=\"round\" stroke-width=\"16\"><\/polyline><\/svg><\/span><span class=\"gb-accordion__toggle-icon-close\"><svg aria-hidden=\"true\" viewbox=\"0 0 256 256\"><rect width=\"256\" height=\"256\" fill=\"none\"\/><polyline points=\"48 160 128 80 208 160\" fill=\"none\" stroke=\"currentColor\" stroke-linecap=\"round\" stroke-linejoin=\"round\" stroke-width=\"16\"><\/polyline><\/svg><\/span><\/span>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"gb-accordion__content\" id=\"gb-accordion-content-c38e042d\">\n<div class=\"gb-element-c9be5c48\">\n<p class=\"gb-text\">The legal basis for the Energy Efficiency Obligation Scheme (EKR) is set out in Act LVII of 2015 on Energy Efficiency (<a href=\"https:\/\/net.jogtar.hu\/jogszabaly?docid=a1500057.tv\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">https:\/\/net.jogtar.hu\/jogszabaly?docid=a1500057.tv<\/a>).
