Last week two key regulatory changes took place that will have important implications for future development of the Croatian renewable energy market.

With so many changes taking place in the Croatian energy sector, many opportunities are opening up.

Will new rules of the game improve competitiveness on the Croatian energy market?

The key electricity-related laws in Croatia are the Energy Act (Zakon o energiji), setting out the fundamental principles for performance of energy activities, the Act on the Regulation of Energy Activities (Zakon o regulaciji energetskih djelatnosti), governing the energy sector and the Electricity Market Act (Zakon o tržištu električne energije), defining the Croatian Electricity Market as well as the roles and responsibilities of market participants.
