Solar Roof Špansko-Croatia, First Year of Operation

This paper presents a project "Solar roof Špansko-Zagreb" with data for the first year of operation. This is the first grid-connected project in the Republic of Croatia. The project comprises of solar collectors providing thermal energy, and of PV modules providing electricity. This building does not emit carbon dioxide into the environment, a major contributor of global warming. The concept shows that passive and active use of solar energy can meet power needs of a building, without disrupting the comfort of habitation. The building reduces consumption of fossil fuels thus reducing the emission of harmful substances into the environment. This project represents an initiative for increased use of solar energy, especially on islands in coastal region and hinterland of Croatia.
