Batteries?
Starting this year, in Romania you cannot put new PV capacity online without the storage for it, is mandatory. Possibly for existing ones, but I am not sure.

Batteries (or pumped storage hydro, which is more like a gravity-driven capacitor)
Hungary is flat as hell, there's nowhere to build enough hydro storage.
But yeah batteries would be nice.
