CEREMONIAL OPENING OF OUR NEW SOLAR POWER PLANT BUKOVICA

"In close cooperation with the Municipality of Jasenice and our partners, we have opened our first solar power plant in Croatia today thus taking another important step towards a more sustainable energy future for the region. We have had excellent cooperation with the municipality of Jasenice for many years; initially, our successful cooperation resulted in a wind park, and today, a solar power plant. We are pleased that the municipalities are ready to participate in the development of sustainable energy projects," said Blaž Šterk, director of Interenergo, at the opening of the power plant. With the opening of the Bukovica solar power plant, we added to our portfolio of renewable water, wind and solar resources in the region, which consists of as many as 35 operating projects.

We built the project with several subcontractors and with the support and involvement of the Municipality of Jasenice in 12 months. The solar power plant was built in the hinterland of Zadar, in a hilly area, which made construction challenging due to difficult terrain and extreme weather conditions.

The mayor of Jasenice, Stipe Vulić, supports the new project and is looking forward to new collaborations: Today, in the moment when we are opening this solar power plant, we are sending a strong message that we are dedicated to changes that will result in cleaner future because solar energy is inexhaustible, clean and environmentally friendly. This solar power plant is not just a technical facility that generates electrical energy, but is also a symbol of our efforts and of our dedication to protecting our environment for future generations, as well as an expression of our vision for a better future. I would also like to praise Interenergo's approach to the local community, which has shown a strong partnership during this period.
