Slovenian energy services company Resalta said on July 21 it has acquired the Croatian renewable energy platform of Norway’s Statkraft, Europe’s largest generator of renewable energy, in a deal that expands its footprint in the country.
The transaction, signed and closed in July, includes a portfolio of renewable energy projects and the full transfer of Statkraft Croatia’s local team to Resalta. Financial details were not disclosed.
"This acquisition represents a significant step forward for Resalta as we expand our footprint in renewable energy project development in Croatia," Resalta Group CEO Luka Komazec said in a statement.
The company said the deal would strengthen its position in one of its key markets and accelerate project delivery capabilities in the country. Resalta has been active in Croatia since 2015, providing solar photovoltaic installations, energy-efficient heating and cooling systems, and building retrofits for commercial, industrial and public-sector clients.
Statkraft, which produces hydropower, wind and solar power, and supplies district heating, has around 7,000 employees in more than 20 countries.
Resalta said it would now focus on integrating the projects and onboarding the new team to ensure a smooth transition, aiming to support Croatia’s efforts to develop sustainable and reliable energy systems aligned with European climate goals.
