EU project

„STIPE LUCIĆ KAMENARSKI CENTAR I KLESARSTVO“, a Stone Shaping and Installation Workshop, owned by Bernard Lucić, Domaslovec, Željeznička 6, has applied for and received non-repayable funds for the project "Transition to an Energy- and Resource-Efficient Economy of the 'STIPE LUCIĆ STONEMASONRY CENTER AND STONE CARVING' Workshop – NPOO.C1.1.1.R4-I1.02.-0070."

The project is being implemented and co-financed under the Recovery and Resilience Mechanism, the NextGenerationEU program, and the Call "Support for Enterprises in Transition to Energy and Resource-Efficient Economy for 2024" – NPOO.C1.1.1. R4-I1.02.

PROJECT GOAL

The goal of the project is to establish an energy- and resource-efficient economy by promoting the effective use of resources, increasing the use of renewable energy sources, and reducing CO2 emissions.

PROJECT DESCRIPTION

The project Transition to an Energy and Resource-Efficient Economy of the "STIPE LUCIĆ KAMENARSKI CENTAR I KLESARSTVO" includes the implementation of two types of activities to increase energy and resource efficiency: the introduction of a new granite slab polishing line and the installation of a photovoltaic power plant. By implementing this project, the amount of delivered energy will be reduced by 62.58%, and resource savings in production per unit of product will be 6.05%. The realization of the project will have a positive impact on the project's target groups – the owners and employees of the company, and the benefits of the project’s effects will extend to both the local and broader communities.

Expert support and consultancy in project preparation and implementation are provided by the company EPSIM d.o.o.
