Services

We have a multidisciplinary team of various technical and natural science professions with strong technical and IT support of other EKONERG’s departments. Our services relate to complex and specific activities in the field of environmental protection, nature protection and sustainable development. We are offering integrated and holistic approaches, as well as in-depth analysis. Our consulting services covers the whole project cycle: strategic planning, project licencing, monitoring and decommissioning. EKONERG and its stuff have certificates for preparation documentation in the field of environment and nature as it was prescribed by Croatian regulations. We are providing consultancy services and documentation in the line with social and environmental policy framework of international financial organisations.

Our references

Our references covers field of environmental protection, nature protection, sustainable development, resources efficiency, capacity building, networking and communication. EKONERG has worked on studies of the largest energy infrastructure projects and industrial plants in the Republic of Croatia. A large number of references refer to sustainable waste management with the mission to support circular economy. Department has three decades of experience in development of some pioneer initiatives and projects in the Republic of Croatia (complex air pollution modelling, critical load mapping studies, energy and environment zoning optimization models, radioactive waste studies). The last significant reference is development of the draft Environmental Action Plan of the Republic of Croatia.
