Programmes and incentives

Status was checked on the operator's page in October 2026. Anything we could not confirm is marked unverified; treat it as a lead to check with the operator, not as an open call.

Deep dive. This site also has a detailed page on the main Hungary programme with eligible costs and a worked example: /cee/hungary-ginop-plus-digital/.
How to size the project before applying. Most programmes fund sensors, software and the engineering to connect them, and most ask for a payback or energy-saving estimate. Use the downtime-cost calculator with the Hungary labour and energy defaults above, then the OEE ROI calculator; the ROI workbook turns both into the one-page business case most operators ask for.

Questions

Which Hungary programmes fund OEE or production-monitoring software?

The table above lists the programmes whose official page describes digitalisation, measurement, energy-management or Industry 4.0 investments as eligible. Status is as read in October 2026; check the operator page before building a budget on it.

Why are some programmes marked unverified?

Because the operator's page could not be read when we checked, or did not state a current status. We publish the name, operator and official URL so you can confirm it; we do not guess whether a call is open.

Where do the cost figures for Hungary come from?

From official statistics (KSH (Kozponti Statisztikai Hivatal), Eurostat, the World Bank, the IFR and labour-cost series from BLS/ILOSTAT), each linked to the page it was read from. They are national averages, not your plant's numbers.
