The innovation of a Hungarian SME, eChemicles Zrt., does exactly this: it produces valuable raw materials from carbon dioxide. CO2 is entering the atmosphere in increasing quantities worldwide, acting as the primary driver of the greenhouse effect, and thus, global warming and the climate crisis. We talked about the invention – which received the 2025 DeepTech Award from the National Research Development and Innovation Office (NRDI Office) – with the company’s co-founder, Csaba Janáky.

Approximately HUF 13 billion in funding awarded to half of the applicants will facilitate the implementation of innovative investments with a total cost exceeding HUF 20 billion. Out of the ten thematic areas announced, Hungarian ideas deemed worthy of support were identified in eight, with the highest number in building energy, energy efficiency, and solutions supporting system operation and reducing grid load.

We have also grown used to controlling everything with remote controls, which operate using infrared light. But what would the world be like if similar light-controlled “remote switches” could be built into cells? At the University of Pécs, Hungarian researchers are studying light-activated molecular switches as part of the HU-rizon Programme. The international research project, funded by the National Research, Development and Innovation Office (NRDI Office), is led by Dr. András Szilárd Lukács. Thu, 09 Apr 2026 09:23:00 +0200
