He added that he would continue to work on this topic in the future. He reminded that he had joined the Initiative for More Climate Ambition led by Austrian President Van der Bellen and announced that in September he would participate, together with the Austrian President, in the Austrian World Summit in Vienna.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Chair of the Energy Transition Council of the President of the Republic of Croatia Julije Domac, PhD, Special Adviser to the President of the Republic for Energy and Climate, noted that the Council will give advice to the President of the Republic, provide guidelines, increase ambitions and the quality of work in all sectors dealing with energy transition. He added that the Council includes economic experts, successful businesspeople, representatives of investors as well as the journalist profession. \u201cEnergy transition is not an issue of technology, energy transition is an issue of justice, of equal opportunities for all our citizens, of equality, sustainability, morals, generation solidarity, patriotism, future, everything we must leave not only to posterity but also to ourselves\u201d, Domac stated. \u201cWe have the chance of a generation and we have people in Croatia who are experts and who often work on larger and more ambitious projects outside of Croatia than within Croatia. Possibilities for European funding in the next few years are great, and now we finally have a political framework. I think that these three factors will accelerate and enable energy transition\u201d, Domac concluded. &nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Comprising the Energy Transition Council of the President of the Republic of Croatia are: Ivan Andro\u010dec PhD, Hrvatska elektroprivreda (Croatian Electrical Utility), Dra\u017een Jak\u0161i\u0107, Energy institute Hrvoje Po\u017ear, Darko Jardas, Regional Energy Agency Kvarner, Vedrana Jelu\u0161i\u0107 Ka\u0161i\u0107, Deloitte d.o.o., Prof. Daria Karasalihovi\u0107 Sedlar PhD, Faculty of Mining, Geology and Petroleum Engineering, Mario Klobu\u010dar, Hrvatske \u0161ume d.o.o.
