Croatia is preparing to build Eastern Europe’s largest energy storage project. IE Energy has secured €19.8 million ($20.9 million) to develop a 50 MW storage system, potentially extendable to 110 MW by 2024.
“There is immense scope for energy storage in Croatia, predominantly for battery storage.” GlobalData says that Croatia is now on target to meet its 36.4% renewable energy target by 2030. However, its recent investment in energy storage has not been accompanied by rapid solar PV development.
Croatia got the green light from Brussels for a EUR 19.8 million grant to IE-Energy for a massive energy storage project.
