Development of a model and analysis of flexibility options for the energy system of the Republic of Croatia until 2050

Republika Hrvatska kao članica Europske unije ima cilj dostizanja klimatske neutralnosti do 2050. godine. Obrađeno je pet scenarija za Republiku Hrvatsku do 2050. godine i izrađeni su njihovi modeli u EnergyPLAN-u. U svakom od njih u kojima se postiže klimatske neutralnost postoji velika integracija obnovljivih izvora energije. Uz integracijom obnovljivih izvora dolazi i do potrebe za opcijama fleksibilnosti u sustavu. Analizirani su dobiveni rezultati te su uspoređeni scenariji po ključnim parametrima. Napravljena je i usporedba scenarija prema opcijama fleksibilnosti te usporedba rezultata nultog scenarija s obzirom na različite uplive opcija fleksibilnosti.As a member of the European Union, the Republic of Croatia aims to become climate neutral by 2050. Five scenarios for the Republic of Croatia were processed, and their models were developed in EnergyPLAN. In each scenario in which climate neutrality is achieved, there is a large integration of renewable energy sources. With the integration of renewable sources comes the need for flexibility options in the system. The obtained results were analyzed, and the scenarios were compared according to key parameters. A comparison between scenarios was made according to flexibility options, and comparison of the results of the zero scenario with regard to the different influences of the flexibility options is also provided
