Croatia's university computing centre runs the Supek supercomputer and Vrancic cloud for research, while a national AI development plan to 2032 is being drafted.

SRCE, the University of Zagreb University Computing Centre, operates Supek, an HPE Cray system of 1.25 petaflops with 81 GPUs, and Vrancic, an OpenStack cloud with 16 GPUs. Both serve science and higher education institutions, and users apply through the SRCE portal. The Ministry of Justice, Public Administration and Digital Transformation started work on a National AI Development Plan to 2032 with an expert group in May 2025. For someone seeking compute, access is for the research and higher education community.

AI policy and activity

The National AI Development Plan to 2032, with an action plan for 2026 to 2028, was in drafting as of May 2025. The ministry notice does not mention compute or data centres.

Power and grid

We did not fetch Croatian grid operator or regulator pages, so no grid facts are recorded here.
