The increase in the use of renewable energy sources will be achieved through the implementation of eight pilot projects where solar power plants with a total capacity of 1.43 MW will be built for the purpose of self-supply. The implementation of eight pilot projects will increase the use of renewable energy sources by 1400 MWh and reduce CO2 emissions by 222 t/year. The applicant of the "SOLIZAG" project is the City of Zagreb, and the national partner is Zagrebački holding d.o.o.
