Croatia got the green light from Brussels to give a EUR 19.8 million grant to a domestic startup for a massive energy storage project. IE-Energy is planning to build a battery system of 50 MW, which means it would be the biggest in Southeastern Europe.
The battery storage system provides energy balancing and maintains grid stability on the island of Vis. The system operates on Li-ion batteries which enable rapid response, both in the terms of energy delivery requirements and for the purpose of storing electricity generated from either Vis SPP or the power grid.
The goal of the Call is to facilitate the deployment of 20MWh of energy storage and 80MW of renewable energy projects. It is also targeting energy efficiency projects totalling 140,000MWh of energy a year, and has the
Their high-energy density enables a fuel cell powered UAV to fly 3 times further than a battery powered equivalent. Applications of hydrogen fuel cells for unmanned aerial vehicles The prospect of using unmanned aerial vehicles for last mile delivery is driving the commercial UAV industry forward, and there are companies successfully deploying now.
The European Commission has allocated €19.8 million in the form of state aid for a number of projects for grid-scale energy storage. The subsidy was awarded to the company IE-Energy from Rijeka. This amount will cover about 30 percent of the costs for the series of battery systems planned for construction around the city of Šibenik.
Though supplementary battery banks provide storage of surplus energy, they cannot fully compensate unregular power generation. Hence, micro-grids still rely heavily on diesel generators. Despite fuel being widely available, the delivery logistics can be challenging, coupled by noise, greenhouse gas emissions and maintenance challenges.
In a significant stride towards energy modernisation, Croatia is setting aside EUR 500 million for the development of large-scale energy storage systems. The announcement was made by Damir Habijan, Croatia''s Minister of Economy and Sustainable Development, at the seventh international energy conference hosted by Jadranski Naftovod (JANAF

Intelligent Energy Storage Systems Market Outlook (2023 to 2033) The global intelligent energy storage systems market was valued at US$ 11.14 billion in 2022 and is forecasted to grow to a size of US$ 31.25 billion by the end of 2033, expanding rapidly at a CAGR of 9.9% over the decade.. Intelligent energy storage systems (IESSs) are advanced energy storage
As well as Austria, NGEN is also deploying large-scale projects in Croatia and its home market of Slovenia, totalling 50MW/100MWh and 70MW/140MWh in size respectively, with 1GW of projects overall in development in Europe. Energy-Storage.news has been told by a local source that the Croatia project is the largest in the country.
With about € 730 million of funds available between 2007 and 2013, the Intelligent Energy Europe Programme (IEE) will help deliver on the ambitious climate change and energy targets that the EU has set for itself. The programme supports concrete projects, initiatives and best practices via annual calls for proposals.
The goal of the Call is to facilitate the deployment of 20MWh of energy storage and 80MW of renewable energy projects. It is also targeting energy efficiency projects totalling 140,000MWh of energy a year, and has the overall goal of reducing CO2 emissions by 60,000 tonnes annually.
Croatia will provide some €500 million (US$534 million) in subsidies for battery energy storage system (BESS) technology, a government minister has said. Minister of Economy and Sustainable Development Damir

“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.
There is no storage facility in southeastern Europe yet with such a capacity,” Attaurrahman Ojindaram Saibasan, a power analyst at GlobalData, told pv magazine. “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.

The European energy storage market is booming with Germany leading residential adoption (+58% YoY) thanks to €500/kWh subsidies. Italy's new tax credits drive 5.2GWh commercial deployments, while UK grid-scale projects exceed 8GWh with 2-hour duration systems. Key selection criteria: German-certified safety (VDE-AR-E 2510), 10+ year warranties, and VPP readiness. Top-performing products include Sonnen's hybrid inverters (98% efficiency) and BYD's Blade Battery (12,000 cycles @80% DoD). For snowy regions like Scandinavia, consider Huawei's -30°C compatible systems. France mandates carbon footprint declarations - Sungrow's ISO-14067 certified solutions gain preference.
For European homeowners, 5-10kWh systems with 3-phase compatibility are ideal. Top picks: 1) Tesla Powerwall 3 (13.5kWh, 97% round-trip efficiency) for smart home integration; 2) LG Chem RESU Prime for compact urban installations; 3) SMA Sunny Boy Storage for retrofit projects. Critical features: EU-made battery cells (exempt from CBAM tariffs), dynamic tariff optimization (like Octopus Energy integration), and fire-safe LiFePO4 chemistry. Southern Europe demands 85%+ depth of discharge capability, while Nordic markets require -25°C operation. Always verify CEI 0-21 compliance for Italian grid connection and EnWG certification for German feed-in.
