Last week, the territory of Nagypáli (Hungary) won the E.ON Energy Globe Award in the municipality category, rewarding them for their efforts in sustainability. Nagypáli started the “Green Road Village Development Programme” twenty years ago. As a result of the programme, today almost all forms of renewable energy are displayed in the center of the village: emerald trees, hybrid power plants (wind and solar), photovoltaic solar panels, electric cars and electric filling stations in the village.
The next step is a biogas plant which is currently under project management. This unique programme encompasses residents and elected representatives that are doing their best to be the more sustainable possible.
