DRI, the renewables arm of Ukraine’s DTEK Group, has announced plans to develop its second wind farm in Croatia, a 120 MW project that will mark the company’s third renewable energy initiative in the country. The new Ljubovo wind farm will be located in Lika-Senj County, central Croatia, with construction slated to begin in 2027. Once operational, the wind farm is expected to generate 349 GWh of electricity annually.
In November, the project received preliminary network access approval from the national transmission system operator HOPS and is currently under review by the Ministry of Economy.
In addition to Ljubovo, DRI is already involved in two other renewable energy projects in Croatia. The Brda Umovi wind farm, located in Split-Dalmatia County, is being developed in two phases. The first phase will have a capacity of 127.5 MW, with an additional 28.8 MW planned for the second phase. The first phase is expected to be completed by the second half of 2026. Additionally, DRI is working on the Vedrine solar power plant, also in Split-Dalmatia County, which will have a capacity of 60 MW and is expected to be operational by the second half of 2027.
