[SMM PV News] Croatia Unveils €450M Energy Package, Including €40M for Residential Renewables
Croatia's government has introduced its tenth energy support package, totaling €450 million, to shield citizens from market volatility and cap fuel and electricity prices until September 2026. A key component of the plan allocates €40 million to co-finance residential solar, battery storage, and heat pump installations. Subsidies will cover up to 50% of investment costs, increasing to 70% for households facing energy poverty. Expected to support around 15,000 applications, the initiative aims to reduce fossil fuel dependence and boost energy self-sufficiency. The package also includes €80 million to decarbonize district heating and cooling systems.
