Renewable sources surpass fossil fuels in Croatia''s
In Croatia, the nominal capacity that uses fossil fuels is a third lower than renewables excluding hydropower. However, thermal power plants can work virtually 24 hours a day while wind and solar power plants depend on
CROATIA GENERATED THE NEEDED POWER FROM RENEWABLE
In December 2023, Croatia made a significant step forward in generating electricity from renewable sources, which had a 19.5 per cent share in the total available electricity, excluding hydroelectric plants, thus ranking first when it comes to the production of electricity in this country.
Croatia to add 1,200 MW of solar, wind in 2024
Croatia has now reached 700 MW, out of which 600 MW is on the roofs of firms and homes, Milatić said. According to the ministry''s data, this year alone close to 500 MW of solar will be installed. The solarization of Croatia is unstoppable, Milatić added.
Chinese-built Croatian wind farm is one of the biggest in the
Croatia is aiming to become a significant renewable energy producer. This wind farm is one of the largest in the Balkans and despite some reservations about the facilities in general, local environmentalists agree that Croatia needs this type of energy production.
Energy in Croatia
Hrvatska elektroprivreda (HEP) is the national energy company charged with production, transmission and distribution of electricity. At the end of 2022, the total available power of power plants on the territory of the Republic of Croatia was 4,946.8 MW, of which 1,534.6 MW in thermal power plants, 2,203.4 MW in hydropower plants, 986.9 MW in wind power plants and 222.0 MW in solar power plants. For th
Renewable sources surpass fossil fuels in Croatia''s electricity mix
In Croatia, the nominal capacity that uses fossil fuels is a third lower than renewables excluding hydropower. However, thermal power plants can work virtually 24 hours a day while wind and solar power plants depend on weather conditions.
Croatian Power System
By its size, the Croatian power system is one of the smallest power systems in Europe. Due to its geographical position and location of generating plants, electricity is transported for most of the year from the south to the north and vice versa, and from the north toward the east.

Wind power in Croatia
By the end of 2021 renewable energy in Croatia is expected to generate around 1060 MW from Wind and Solar alone or around 32% of all energy consumption from renewable energy source, Croatia exceeded EU''s renewable energy targets and exceed that by a wide margin.

Energy in Croatia
In May 2023, Acciona Energy announced the construction of the largest solar power plant in Croatia. The new power plant will be spread over three million square meters of rugged state land and will have a capacity of 150 MW, which is enough to meet the needs of
