Audi Hungaria is thus the second of five Audi sites (after Audi Brussels) to achieve a neutral carbon balance, according to the company. We have a clear aim: that all Audi sites will have carbon-neutral operation by 2025. The remaining heat is generated through natural gas, with carbon neutrality assured thanks to bio-gas certificates.
