Energy in Croatia describes energy and electricity production, consumption and import in Croatia. As of 2023, Croatia imported about 54.54% of the total energy consumed annually: 78.34% of its oil demand, 74.48% of its gas and 100% of its coal needs. Croatia satisfies its electricity needs largely from hydro and. .

Renewable energy here is the sum of hydropower, wind, solar, geothermal, modern biomass and wave and tidal energy. Traditional biomass – the burning of charcoal, crop waste, and other organic matter – is not included. This can be an important energy source in lower-income settings. Croatia: How much of the country’s energy comes from nuclear power?
In order to become energy-independent and sustainable, Croatia counts on its abundant renewable energy resources. In February 2020, the Croatian government adopted a new Energy Strategy for the period until 2030, with an outlook through 2050.
Traditional biomass – the burning of charcoal, crop waste, and other organic matter – is not included. This can be an important source in lower-income settings. Croatia: How much of the country’s electricity comes from nuclear power? Nuclear power – alongside renewables – is a low-carbon source of electricity.
According to Eurostat, gross primary energy consumption in Croatia in 2021 was 9.61 Terrawatt hours (TWh) and final energy consumption was 8.1 TWh. Renewable energies account for 31.33 % of Croatia’s energy mix, with 53.47% of total electricity production coming from renewables, primarily large hydropower plants.
In February 2020, the Croatian government adopted a new Energy Strategy for the period until 2030, with an outlook through 2050. The Strategy includes a wide range of energy policy initiatives that will improve energy security, increase energy efficiency, lower dependence on fossil fuels, increase local production and increase renewable resources.
Renewable energies account for approximately 31.33% of Croatia's energy mix. Hrvatska elektroprivreda (HEP) is the national energy company charged with production, transmission and distribution of electricity.

Achieving energy efficiency particularly in Iraq is very critical due to continuous energy crisis since the 1990s. One of the major cities, Basra City faced this crisis since 2003 with energy generation declining by 26.4%. . According to World Watch Institute Estimations, buildings are responsible for 40% of t. . The term ‘energy efficiency’ specifically referring to heating and cooling in buildings is directly related to two factors during the design stage. First, building envelope and second building. .

Large solar farms in the Sahara Desert could redistribute solar power generation potential locally as well as globally through disturbance of large-scale atmospheric teleconnections, according to simulations with an Earth system model.
Large-scale photovoltaic solar farms envisioned over the Sahara desert can meet the world's energy demand while increasing regional rainfall and vegetation cover. However, adverse remote effects resulting from atmospheric teleconnections could offset such regional benefits.
Our Earth system model simulations show that the envisioned large-scale solar farms in the Sahara Desert, if covering 20% or more of the area, can significantly influence atmospheric circulation and further induce cloud fraction and RSDS changes (summarized in Fig. 7) across other regions and seasons.
Harvesting the globally available solar energy (or even just that over the Sahara) could theoretically meet all humanity's energy needs today (Hu et al., 2016; Li et al., 2018). Large-scale deployment of solar facilities over the world's deserts has been advanced as a feasible option (Komoto et al., 2015).
By examining the large-scale remote responses induced by Sahara solar farms in S20 SST, we find that the precipitation and wind anomalies seen in S20 are significantly dampened when the ocean response to local changes and associated ocean–atmosphere interactions are limited (Figure 1f; Figure S3f).
However, by employing an advanced Earth-system model (coupled atmosphere, ocean, sea-ice, terrestrial ecosystem), we show the unintended remote effects of Sahara solar farms on global climate and vegetation cover through shifted atmospheric circulation.
