The company, which operates the electricity grid across Transdanubia, Pest County, and Budapest, is enhancing biodiversity at 90 company-owned locations \u2014 including facilities, power plants, solar parks, and substations \u2014 creating a <strong>more livable environment for local wildlife.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Recent initiatives include installing <strong>nesting boxes for falcons, swallows, songbirds, and bats, establishing bee pastures, restore natural meadow character, planting trees and shrubs, and placing stone and wood piles as shelter for insects and lizards.<\/strong> This year, <strong>sheep will replace traditional mowing and chemical weed control<\/strong> at three solar parks, while birds of prey have been attracted to handle rodent control naturally in Moh\u00e1cs, and protected ground squirrels and wild hares have found habitats at other sites.<\/p>\n<p>The company&#8217;s long-term goal is to <strong>increase biodiversity<\/strong> and create habitats where species can complete their entire life cycles. To achieve this, it ceases mowing wherever possible and establishes green corridors free of invasive species, enabling the natural spread of wildflowers and more diverse plant communities.<\/p>\n<p>Every intervention is preceded by a thorough ecological assessment, carried out in cooperation with professional partners, experts from the National Parks located in E.ON&#8217;s service area, the Hungarian Ornithological and Nature Conservation Society (MME), and other supporting organizations and universities.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-78274 size-portfolio lazyload\" data-src=\"https:\/\/bcsdh.hu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/A-baranyokat-fedett-akol-es-itato-varja-a-naperomuparkban4-495x400.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"495\" height=\"400\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/bcsdh.hu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/A-baranyokat-fedett-akol-es-itato-varja-a-naperomuparkban4-495x400.jpg 495w, https:\/\/bcsdh.hu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/A-baranyokat-fedett-akol-es-itato-varja-a-naperomuparkban4-845x684.jpg 845w\" data-sizes=\"(max-width: 495px) 100vw, 495px\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB3aWR0aD0iMSIgaGVpZ2h0PSIxIiB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciPjwvc3ZnPg==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 495px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 495\/400;\" \/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>As part of its biodiversity action plan launched in 2023, E.ON Hung\u00e1ria Group is making its sites greener.
