OP Competitiveness and Cohesion Open issues: State aid Eligibility ITI Opportunities for HEP projects to be funded from the ESI funds Three-folded role: Direct user Partner Service provider PA 4 - Supporting the shift towards a low- carbon economy in all sectors Supporting energy efficiency, smart energy management and renewable energy use in public infrastructure, including in public buildings, and in the housing sector (energy efficincy in housing, district heating..) Developing and implementing smart distribution systems that operate at low and medium voltage levels (distribution operator) PA 7 - Promoting sustainable transport and removing bottlenecks in key network infrastructures Developing and improving environmentally-friendly and low- carbon transport systems PA 1 - Strengthening research, technological development and innovation Promoting business investment in R&D

Improvement of the efficiency of district heating system – SO 4c3 The main goals of the projects are: decrease of energy losses in distribution network, decrease of ratio of water added to the network volume, improvement of the energy efficiency of plants producing thermal energy and increase of share of the RES used in production of thermal energy Time line: preparation of project documentation and project application start of project implementation Integrated territorial investments (ITI) - financial instrument 7 cities: Zagreb, Split, Rijeka, Osijek, Slavonski Brod, Zadar, Pula, Purpose: sustainable urban development (min. 5% of ERDF) based on an integrated strategic documents that include economic, environmental, climate and social aspects and take care of connecting the city with the surrounding area.

Projects No.The name of the project DescriptionEstimated cost (mil€) 1. The revitalisation of hot water pipelines in Zagreb The replacement of 100 km of old classical hot water pipelines by new preinsulated ones. 104,5 2. The revitalisation of main hot water pipeline from cogeneration plant TE- TO Osijek to heating plant from HEP- TOPLINARSTVO The replacement of existing main hot water pipeline DN 550 with the new one DN ,1 3. The construction of central heating system in Velika Gorica, Zaprešić and Samobor The modernisation of existing local plants, the connecting of local plants in mentioned areas with the common distribution network, introducing the cogeneration system and renewable energy resources. 13,4

No.The name of the projectDescriptionEstimated costs (mil HRK) 1. Investments in Systems for management Standardization of the system, interconnections and improvement of the management system. 24,8 2. HV(MV)/MV substation refurbishment and SCADA implementation Aim is to make SCADA more efficient by implementing it in every HV(MV)/MV substation. Results in less outages and shorter fault duration. 10 – 15 per year 3. Automation and management per depth of grid It is necessary to create strategic document in which system concept and requirements on individual components of distribution network would be defined 20 – 30 per year (continuously from 2017) 4. Implementation of new smart technologies Programme connected with project 4. At the moment realization of small pilot projects 2 for Advanced Metering Infrastructure It is planned to install smart/advanced meters in pilot phase. In the second phase the goal is to install advanced metering devices for measurement of total energy consumption in low-voltage substations 8 yearly Investment programme in implementation of smart grids (SO 4d1)
