The Novalja project was supported by a EUR 12.2 million loan from the European Bank for Reconstruction and Development (EBRD). The total investment in the project was estimated at EUR 16.3 million.
Construction on the solar power plant began in April 2025. The project involved the installation of 35,776 photovoltaic panels. Its annual electricity output was estimated at about 31,000 MWh, enough to supply about 12,000 households.
In 2024, the Novalja solar project was awarded premiums for 15 MW of capacity in an auction organized by the Croatian Energy Market Operator (HROTE).
