KLIK energy community
country
Croatia
Goal
The energy community ‘KLIK’ aims to contribute to the development of an energy-independent city and boost the transition to climate neutrality. It uses ambitious and innovative tools such as blockchain technology to connect the micro-network and peer-to-peer electricity trading.
The goal was to raise funds to install solar photovoltaics on the rooftop of the municipality’s administrative building. Soon, it became the biggest solar project in Croatia and led to the establishment of the first energy community in the country in 2020.
