RES IN EU
New EU Directive!
 Proposal of new EU directive on the promotion of the
use of energy from renewable sources:
 Transposition in Member State legislation – latest 31
March 2010
 Electricity – average 20% of power consumption,
different for different Member States – Malta 10%,
Sweden 49%
 Share according to reference year (2005), energy
consumption and growth,
 Control through annual trajectory check points
 Defines 10% RES in transport
 Restriction to biofuels and biomass according to
environmental sustainability criteria
 Greenhouse gas impact
 Guarantees of origin – trading scheme
 Solar restriction – overall efficiency 35%
PULA – ENERGY INFORMATION DAY – CROATIAN CHAMBER OF ECONOMY
RES EXPECTATIONS
 Lowering long term dependence on energy
sources – improvement of energy stability &
security of supply
 Energy efficiency and less environment
influence of fossil fuels
 Employment increase, new SMEs in energy
sector
 New technology development

possibilities
 Best options for RES use in Croatia in terms of
competitiveness and potential contribution to
the national energy balance sheet:
 wind farms and biomass cogeneration for electricity
generation
 biomass heat plants and solar thermal collectors for
heat production
 liquid biofuels for transport
 Other RES technologies - geothermal energy
for heat, small hydro, geothermal cogeneration
and solar PV for electric energy generation

legislative
 Strong activities towards RES legislation,
 Since July 2007 legislation in conformity with
EU directives includes:
 Important statement: “Energy production from RES is
interest of Republic of Croatia”
 Definition of RES by category
 Energy share from RES in energy mix till end of 1010
– will not fulfil
 Registration procedures – MINGORP
 Incentive tariff system for energy produced from RES

potential
 WIND POWER
 largest potential
 interest stronger then
connection to grid
possibilities
 1st wind farm 2005 –
5.8 MW
 2nd wind farm 2006 –
12 MW
 3rd wind farm under
construction – 42 MW

potential
 Solar power:
 Still expensive technology, 1MW limit for Croatia
 Return of investment approximately 16 years for
small objects – contracts limited to 12 years
 Theoretical financial reliability: coastline south
from Zadar – PV, north thermal heating and cooling
 Legislation does not recognise small solar power
systems (less then 30 kW)
 Small solar systems (4 in Croatia) – app. 56 kW
capacity
 Today’s PV efficiency – 15%
 Largest Solar power plant – Portugal, 12 MW

 BIOFUELS:
 MODIBIT – Ozalj
 20,000t/year capacity
 Problems: raw
material, market
 No incentive for
agricultural production
in future
 VITREX - Virovitica
 8,000t/year capacity

results
 Production:
 First wind generator developed and
produced in Croatia
 Factory tested, prototype will soon be
installed on-site
 Production to start:
 Semiconductor technology for solar
panels
Important questions:
 New jobs: How can RES
increase employment?
 Energy efficiency: Who is
going on diet to save
money for the food?
