Electrical circuit extends free consultation: solar power plants and EV charging stations for entrepreneurs

The Croatian National Association for E-Mobility, Strujni Krug, has decided to further expand its free advisory initiative, enabling entrepreneurs not only to implement charging stations for electric vehicles but also to install solar power plants. This strategic move comes at a critical time, given the increasing interest in renewable energy sources and the need for energy independence ahead of the upcoming tourist season.

High interest from entrepreneurs for sustainable solutions

The first phase of the initiative, focused on advising on the installation of charging stations for electric vehicles, attracted more than 130 applications from business entities in various sectors. Motivated by the positive response, the organizers decided to expand the offer to enable entrepreneurs to make a full transition to sustainable business practices. Due to increased demand, the duration of the campaign has been extended until February 18, 2025, providing additional interested parties with the opportunity to participate.

Solar energy – the key to energy independence

The installation of solar power plants has become one of the most cost-effective solutions for reducing energy costs in the business sector. Given the rise in electricity prices and the demand for environmentally friendly alternatives, many companies have recognized solar power plants as a long-term profitable investment. The benefits include reduced operational costs, greater independence from network suppliers, and an improved ecological image for the company.

For entrepreneurs in the tourism industry, such as hotels, apartments, and camps, implementing solar systems brings additional benefits – the ability to offer green accommodation to an increasingly eco-conscious clientele. Moreover, solar energy ensures a stable supply of electricity during periods of high seasonal demand.

Strujni Krug as support in the energy transition

Strujni Krug has been helping entrepreneurs with the implementation of e-mobility solutions and renewable energy sources for years. Through free consultations, the association's experts assist in assessing profitability, selecting technology, and obtaining necessary permits and incentives. In addition, members of the association are offered access to more favorable terms and financial models for system implementation.

Available incentives and financial reliefs

One of the key factors encouraging entrepreneurs to transition to solar systems is the availability of incentives and subsidies. In Croatia, there are various co-financing programs that allow business entities to significantly reduce initial investments in renewable energy sources. Strujni Krug provides advisory support in the process of applying for and utilizing these incentives.

How to apply?

All interested entrepreneurs, especially those in the tourism sector, can apply for free consultation through the online platform. By applying, they gain the opportunity for a detailed profitability analysis, tailored recommendations, and technical support at all stages of implementation.

This is an opportunity for entrepreneurs to recognize the benefits of sustainable energy, reduce long-term costs, and increase the competitiveness of their properties. Given the rising electricity prices and climate challenges, investing in solar power plants and e-mobility is not only ecologically sound but also the most economically rational solution.
