AGP Executive Report
Last update: 5 hours agoElectricity & Energy: Croatia briefly became a net electricity exporter in Q1 2026, exporting a 131 GWh surplus as hydropower rose 22.3% and solar output jumped over 50%, before the country returned to importing again in March and kept that trend through April and May. Environment: Croatia fell from 5th to 12th in Europe’s bathing-water quality rankings, but experts say it’s mainly due to how the EU classification works and expanded monitoring, not a sudden drop in sea conditions. Coastal Access Rules: Zadar County is set to tighten beach access rules so concession beaches can’t charge entry fees or block public access, with fenced-off areas expected to disappear over time. Weather Watch: Croatia is preparing for its first major summer heatwave, with warnings starting in Rijeka and expanding to Split, Dubrovnik and Knin, as hot days and difficult night cooling raise health risks. World Cup & Zagreb Angle: England’s 4-2 opener win over Croatia in Dallas sparked a flood of coverage—from Tuchel’s complaints about photographers during the anthem to injury worries for Rashford ahead of Ghana—while Zagreb fans also get a local cultural hit with the new GEEK Caffe opening at Zagreb Velesajam.
