Student award “IMAM ŽICU!”
Student award (for physics and mathematics) was established in 1995 as part of the celebration of the Century of Hrvatska elektroprivreda. Since 2005, when the award was named IMAM ŽICU!, it has been given to the best young electro technicians.
The winners of 400 EUR of the prize money are all the students who win the first place at state competitions in mathematics and physics as well as the public presentation of papers in physics for the previous school year. In the area of mathematics, those are students from the 5
th to the 8

Za naše male genijalce (For our little geniuses)
Inspired by bad conditions of the classrooms for computer science, in 2015 HEP started an action of buying new computers for primary schools. In this way we offer the youngest students the opportunity to get a better computer science education, as well as the opportunity to create new knowledge and success. HEP has provided 750 computers to students in 226 elementary schools across Croatia over the past six years. The total value of donated IT equipment so far amounts to almost 679,000 EUR.
Public tender for the donations ‘Svjetlo na zajedničkom putu’ (Light on our Way)
The participants of the annual public tender may be registered associations, clubs and institutions with headquarters in Croatia. Projects from the following areas may apply for tender: the youth, art and cultural heritage, humanitarian work, science, society or environment. The decision on awarding donations is made on the basis of the assessment of project’s quality and authenticity, the level of its usefulness in the local or wider social community and effective and responsible donation management.
