Thermal from Solar – Croatia: Potential for investments
In EU till the end of 2005 installed cca 15.7 millions m 2 of thermal
collectors
(Croatia’s neighbors: Greece cca 3 millions m 2 , Austria over 2 millions m 2 ........)
In analogy, present potential in Croatia: 0.3 – 1 million m2
(actually installed few %, or less)
In touristic areas excellent correlation between solar energy irradiation
and DHW (domestic hot water) load
EU goal till 2010 g: 100 millions m2.
Ultimate potential (for DHW only): 1-1,5 m2/capita), hence
over 500 millions m2 for EU
4-6 millions of m2 of thermal solar collectors in Croatia
