Croatia has taken a major step toward sustainable rail transport by signing contracts for six new battery-electric trains in a project valued at €53.6 million. The announcement, made on July 16, 2026, underscores the country’s commitment to reducing carbon emissions and modernizing its public transportation infrastructure.
The battery-electric trains are expected to replace older diesel units, offering cleaner and more efficient service on regional routes. The investment is part of a broader green transport strategy aligned with European Union environmental goals.
Details on the manufacturer and delivery timeline are yet to be disclosed, but the project signals a significant upgrade for Croatia’s rail network. The move has been welcomed by environmental groups and commuters alike, who see it as a positive step toward a greener future.
