🇭🇷 Electricity Imports of Croatia

Since the start of the millennium, Croatia has increased its imports of electricity due to a lack of domestically generated electrical power. Croatia is part of the European transmission system and Europe's internal energy market which allows for easy trade of electrical power across countries in the region.

In order to harmonise and liberalise the EU’s internal energy market, measures have been adopted since 1996 to address market access, transparency and regulation, consumer protection, supporting interconnection, and adequate levels of supply. These measures aim to build a more competitive, customer-centred, flexible and non-discriminatory EU electricity and gas market with market-based supply prices. In so doing, they strengthen and expand the rights of individual customers and energy communities, address energy poverty, clarify the roles and responsibilities of market participants and regulators and address the security of the supply of electricity, gas and oil, as well as the development of trans-European networks for transporting electricity and gas. Since the Russian invasion of Ukraine and the resulting energy crisis, the structure of the EU energy market has been undergoing profound structural changes.

Formula:

YoY change = (final value – initial value) / initial value * 100

What does YoY absolute change mean?

Year over Year absolute change (YoY absolute change) refers to the simple difference in the indicator over two periods in time

Formula:

YoY absolute change = final value – initial value
