Increasing the capacity for solar energy production on public buildings of the municipality of Medulin

About this project

<p>THE MAIN PROBLEM addressed by this project is the lack of capacity of the Municipality of Medulin as an applicant, and the company Med eko servis d.o.o. and Albanež d.o.o. as project partners, for the production of solar energy, which will be solved by achieving the SPECIFIC OBJECTIVE of the project, i.e. by increasing the capacity for the production of solar energy in the municipality of Medulin.<br> The project will install 7 photovoltaic power stations, i.e. implement 7 pilot projects that will consequently ensure an increase in solar energy production by 330,42 MWh /year and a reduction in annual CO2 emissions by 52,41 tons.&nbsp;<br> This will contribute to solving the general project problem of using technologies with increased carbon emissions and insufficient level of security of energy supply in the Republic of Croatia and achieving the overall goal of the project, i.e. contribute to increasing solar energy production in the Republic of Croatia.<br> TARGET GROUPS are the Municipality of Medulin, Med eko servis d.o.o., Albanež d.o.o. and their employees as well as partners from the donor country - Åpenhet AS.<br> Total project value is 408.109,80 EUR, and the estimated duration of the project is 24 months.</p>

Bilateral cooperation results

Having a donor project partner, Åpenhet AS from Norway, provided significant benefits to the project. The partnership enriched the project by offering advanced knowledge and expertise in renewable energy. Through the study trip and workshops, Norwegian experts shared their practical experience, which helped participants understand innovative approaches and best practices in solar energy systems. This collaboration also enhanced public awareness and provided valuable tools for effective communication about renewable energy. The bilateral cooperation achieved important results. The study trip to Norway offered participants a chance to observe cutting-edge solar energy technologies and implementation strategies. This experience improved local expertise in managing and promoting renewable energy solutions. Furthermore, the partnership strengthened ties between Croatian and Norwegian institutions, laying the groundwork for future collaborations in sustainable energy development. The knowledge and relationships established during the project have opened opportunities for further joint initiatives. These future collaborations may focus on advanced solar technologies and innovative solutions tailored to local contexts, particularly for sensitive cultural or environmental areas. The partnership aims to build on the achievements of this project and contribute to long-term sustainability efforts.
