DEPLOYING HYDROGEN ECONOMY IN SLOVENIA
Solar innovator Slovenia
In March 2019 the Slovenian Government adopted the renewed Regulation on Self-Reliance on Electricity from Renewable Sources (“Regulation”), which regulates the net-metering model. The net-metering model was first introduced in Slovenia in 2015 and has proved a great success. There are (as of the end of 2018). . Solar electricity has always been associated with high costs, which is why support schemes are still important for generating investment in renewable energy production. The. . In order to manage the construction and installation costs of the photovoltaic power plant, investors may apply for favourable loans or grants from the Eco Fund, the Slovenian Environmental Public Fund.

What is the primary energy supply in Slovenia?
Total primary energy supply (TPES) in Slovenia was 6.80 Mtoe in 2019. In the same year, electricity production was 16.1 TWh, consumption was 14.9 TWh. The transportation and industrial sectors were the largest consumers of energy in Slovenia in 2019.
How can Slovenia transition to low-carbon energy sources?
Slovenia is seeking to gradually transition to low-carbon energy sources by focusing on efficient energy consumption, increased use of renewable energy sources, and the development of active electricity-distribution networks.
Is Slovenia a nominated electricity market operator?
The Energy Agency publishes invitation for the designation as a Nominated Electricity Market Operator for the Slovenian bidding zone for an indefinite period of time. We present key data on the Slovenian electricity and gas markets, consumer protection, supply with heat, and energy efficiency.
Where does Slovenia's electricity come from?
Roughly one-third of Slovenia’s electricity comes from hydroelectric sources, one-third from thermal sources, and one-third from nuclear power (with non-hydro renewables constituting two percent of the total). Almost half of Slovenia’s total energy consumption consists of imported petroleum purchased on global markets.
Why is Slovenia rethinking its energy policy?
Russia’s February 2022 invasion of Ukraine, however, forced Slovenia to reconsider its energy policy and seek alternate sources. Slovenia does not have gas storage facilities, with companies dependent on infrastructure in Austria and Croatia.
Is nuclear energy the future of Slovenia's energy mix?
In July 2021, following Parliament’s approval of Slovenia’s long-term climate strategy, the Ministry of Infrastructure issued the energy permit for the second reactor at Krško nuclear power plant, sending a strong signal on the future role of nuclear energy in Slovenia’s energy mix.
