Croatia's draft updated NECP (2023) raised the 2030 target for the share of renewables in the final energy consumption from 36.4% to 42.5%, including 73.6% for electricity, 47.1% for heating and cooling, and 21.6% in transport. It should reach 53-65% in 2050 (Energy Development Strategy, 2020). In 2022, renewables covered 28% of final energy consumption, including 55.5% for electricity, 37% for heating and cooling and 2.4% in transport. In 2022, HROTE launched a 638 MW renewable auction that was under-subscribed and only awarded 107 MW.
