Croatia is set to put online a total of 1,200 MW in solar and wind power capacity in 2024, State Secretary in the Ministry of Economy and Sustainable Development Ivo Milatić said on the sidelines of the II Regional
SolarPower Europe and Renewable Energy Sources of Croatia (RES Croatia) have signed a strategic partnership to support solar energy growth in Croatia and the wider region. As Croatia approaches the milestone of 1GW of solar capacity, this partnership reflects a shared commitment to supporting the region''s renewable energy ambitions and

But a group of islanders is now trying to harness the power of the 3,000 hours of sun they enjoy yearly and help the community decarbonize by 2040 with a citizen-owned solar power plant.
The clean energy transition and development of the solar power sector can contribute to GDP growth and new jobs creation. Renewable Market Watch™ estimates that solar photovoltaic power capacity in Croatia will increase significantly in the following years compared to its current level assuming the tendered and planned large scale projects.
The Korlat Solar Plant — funded by a €31.6 million loan from the EBRD — will be Croatia''s largest solar power project with a capacity of up to 99 MW. It will support HEP''s decarbonisation goals by reducing CO2 emissions by around 28,899 tonnes annually and help the country meet its renewable energy targets by 2030.
As high electricity bills have closed most hotels along Croatia''s Adriatic coast ahead of the winter season, the mayor of the Dalmatian port town of Makarska is making plans to make it energy
Croatia is set to put online a total of 1,200 MW in solar and wind power capacity in 2024, State Secretary in the Ministry of Economy and Sustainable Development Ivo Milatić said on the sidelines of the II Regional Conference RE-Source Croatia Hub 2024, dedicated to the development of power purchase agreements (PPAs).
The representative of the Prime Minister of the Republic of Croatia and State Secretary in the Ministry of the Economy and Sustainable Development, Ivo Milatic, and the CEO of Croatian Electrical Industry (HEP), Frane Barbaric, put into service today the solar power plant Vis, the largest solar power plant in Croatia worth 31 million HRK.

HEP will build new 1,500 MW generation capacity until 2030, of which almost half in wind and solar power plants, corresponding to the capacity of Krško Nuclear Power Plant. The investment cycle of solar power plant construction in the period between 2019 and 2023 is
By the end of 2014, the country had approximately 33MW solar capacity. However, solar photovoltaic market growth in Croatia between 2015 and 2019 was moderate, with only 20.4MW newly installed capacity in this period from eligible producers.

However, to harness this potential effectively, Croatia will need to adopt more ambitious solar energy targets, ensure clear renewable energy investment direction in the power sector, and develop its modern electricity grid. The clean energy transition and development of the solar power sector can contribute to GDP growth and new jobs creation.
The maximum reference values of market premiums for solar were €0.82/kWh and €0.75/kWh for wind. The first auction for large-scale projects in Croatia took place in 2022 to procure 638 MW of new capacity. However, it only attracted tepid interest, with premiums awarded to just 107 MW of projects.
The abundance of solar irradiation in Croatia shall enable photovoltaic energy to become an increasingly cost-competitive power generation source and attract new investments. Croatian solar resource potential Energy Institute Hrvoje Pozar initiated several solar radiation measurements projects in Croatia.
The Croatian authorities initially reviewed 144 projects totaling 713 MW for the auction. The tender was carried out in two phases. One awarded market premiums for projects with installed capacities of more than 1 MW each, including 350 MW of solar, 60 MW of wind, and 7.25 MW of hydropower.
The first auction for large-scale projects in Croatia took place in 2022 to procure 638 MW of new capacity. However, it only attracted tepid interest, with premiums awarded to just 107 MW of projects. The regulator offered a 300 MW quota for solar plants, but only four bids were accepted, for a total capacity of 8 MW.
