- The construction of CCGT Sisak – Unit C is underway (230 MWe, 50 MWt). Its completion and commissioning is expected in mid 2014.
- Integrated Environmental Requirements and the Location Permit were issued in 2012 for the 500 MW replacement coal-fired unit (3.6 TWh/year) in Plomin Thermal Power Plant (TEP C). The procedure for selecting HEP's strategic partner in project financing, constructing, equipping, maintaining and operating has also been prepared. The procedure of selecting the strategic partner and activities of preparing the site for construction purposes have been continued in 2013.
- The construction of Ombla Hydropower Plant (68 MW, 223 GWh) will be primarily financed by the EBRD loan. The process of informing the public on the Biodiversity Management Plant of the Ombla area developed during 2012 has been carried out. Other construction preparatory activities have been planned and carried out.
- Intensity and type of activities on other capital electricity generation investments have been harmonized with the priorities resulting from the evaluation of business attractiveness and strategic importance for HEP Group. This group of projects especially includes the second phase of HPP Dubrovnik (300 MW, 318 GWh) and the second construction phase of Senj Hydropower System (412 MW, 450 GWh) consisting of the construction of Kosinj Hydropower System and HPP Senj 2, for which HEP has been preparing documentation and carrying out environmental impact assessment procedures as well as other technical documentation required for obtaining location permits and investment preparation.
- HEP-Development of Multi-Purpose Real Estate Projects d.o.o. has been developing the project of HPP on the Sava river (150 MW, 640 GWh) for HEP Group. This project is currently undergoing the phase of researching the possibilities of implementing the concept based on the possibility of protecting city and suburban areas from large Sava river flows by redirecting majority of water flows into the Sava-Odra-Sava canal, which requires the revision of previous project concepts. This project has been continued in 2013 by comparing alternative solutions, technical and economic analyses and preparing documentation for obtaining permits for individual facilities.
Other projects, such as modernization of thermal power plants, construction of new hydropower plants – run-of-river as well as storage ones – are currently being developed. Further activities will be determined in line with feasibility studies and ranking criteria.
Several other possible sites for the construction of thermal and hydro power plants are also being considered. |

| The most important investments in new facilities over the next period comprise the completion of construction of TS220/110/35/20(10) kV Plat and TS 110/10(20) kV Srđ (Dubrovnik Program), completion of the project "Control Functions" – renewal of the dispatching center and network centers, completion of input/output of the 220 kV Mraclin - Prijedor line at Sisak TPP (to connect Sisak TPP C to the network), construction of 2x400 kV Plomin – Melina line (to integrate Plomin TPP C with the electricity system), construction of TS 400/110 kV Lički Osik (to improve cross-border capacity and integrate more renewable energy sources as well as Senj 2/Kosinj), input/output of 110 kV Zakučac-Meterize 3 line at TS Vrboran (to create conditions in the network of the city of Split for putting into service the renewed Zakučac HPP) and installation of attenuators at TS Konjsko and TS Ernestinovo. |
| The main activities focus on the continuation of investments in capital projects of 110 kV, 35 kV and 10(20) kV and launching of new ones, implementation of Dubrovnik Program projects (TS Srđ and associated lines), continuation of investments in construction of telecommunication links to provide for integration of important plants and business infrastructure into HEP's telecommunications system as well as to ensure conditions for implementation of smart grid concept, continuation of investment in replacement of worn-out and construction of new submarine cables, preparation and construction of medium and low voltage facilities, reconstruction of household connections in areas in which the network has been reconstructed, implementation of the investment program Voltage Restitution, continuation of investment in regular replacement of metering equipment at metering points and investment to improve metering points in accordance with regulations, and launching of investment program to increase security of supply in areas where it is jeopardized. |

Electricity supply and trade
Supply and trade in the next period will offer new products and energy services through energy efficiency projects, green energy, green certificate trading, CO2 emission trading. The volume of trade and supply of electricity will be increased through presence on neighboring markets.
Gas business
The long-term business policy of HEP is to participate in the gas sector at several levels. Considering the establishment of a new gas supply route, the opportunities open for new arrangements in wholesale. Also, natural gas distribution and supply businesses will be developed based on concessions by expanding the gas network in the area of Slavonia and Baranja.
Preparations are being made for active participation in the development and construction of the LNG (liquefied natural gas) terminal on the Croatian Adriatic Coast, a significant alternative supply route.
District heating
In addition to bringing the district heating business to the level of economic viability, the main development objectives are to expand the heating business in Sisak by constructing a new unit at Sisak TPP, which is underway, continue the projects of renewal of hot water and steam network, construct heating systems in Zagreb and Velika Gorica, connect existing customers to the district heating system and close separate boiler plants, implement the project of technical and economic optimization of the district heating system and renew heating substations.
Energy efficiency
Increasing importance will be given to the implementation and financing of energy efficiency using ESCO model for customers and clients outside and within HEP Group. Customers will be continuously provided with additional services through energy inspections, advises and the rest.
Renewable energy sources
One of the basic business objectives is to build plants for electricity and heat production from renewable energy sources in all commercially available technologies: small hydro (up to 10 MW), wind, biomass, photovoltaic and collectors. On HEP’s plants and facilities, photovoltaic and solar heating systems will be prepared and built.
Other
The project to introduce e-mobility is currently underway, which represents a business step into the future and creation of a new customer base. The infrastructure for acceptance of electrical vehicles by the system is being developed. |
