Built World

Attended the signing ceremony

Four Croatian cities could start heating homes with underground hot water by 2030. The government signed a €35 million grant on October 9 to drill injection wells at Velika Gorica, Osijek, Vinkovci, and Zaprešić, where test wells already confirmed usable heat. The tender for the drilling work has not yet been issued: the Croatian Hydrocarbon Agency (AZU) sent its tender documents back to prior consultation after receiving 138 questions and comments.
