Across the 6 Croatia power plants carrying an asset-level CO₂ figure in this open dataset, total emissions are about 2.6 Mt CO₂/yr. The single largest emitter, Plomin Thermal Power Plant Croatia (coal), accounts for about 43% of that 6-plant reported subset (not of the whole country). The top three owners — Hrvatska elektroprivreda dd, HEP-Proizvodnja doo [100%], Petrokemija dd [100%] — control roughly 92% of that 6-plant reported subset. Most of these plants sit in a temperate Köppen climate zone.
