Energy Strategy of CroatiaEnergy Strategy of Croatia

• Energy Strategy of Croatia (2002)• Energy Strategy of Croatia – (2009) :

– 20% gross direct consumption from RES in 2020– Biomass: 26 PJ; 85 MW power plants– Biofuels: 10% (9 PJ) of energy consumption in

transport– Biogas: 2.6 PJ, assumed utilisation of 20% of

livestock units
