  • National company Petrol is the largest fuel retailer.
  • 73% of the power mix is CO2-free (2022).
  • Electricity and gas prices increased significantly in 2022 and 2023, despite support measures.
  • Total energy consumption declined slightly in 2022.
  • Slovenia is developing many electricity and gas interconnection projects.
  • A referendum will be held in 2024 on the construction of a second nuclear reactor of up to 2.4 GW at Krško.

  • Institutions & Energy Policy

    The Energy Directorate of the Ministry of the Environment, Climate, and Energy is in charge of defining the energy policy objectives and regulating public utilities.

    The Ministry of Infrastructure oversees transport and energy infrastructure and ensures energy supply is reliable.

    The Energy Agency (Agencija za energijo) is in charge of regulating the energy markets.

  • Energy Supply

    Gas:

    Slovenia imports gas from Russia, directly or through Austria. It also imported gas from Algeria, through Italy, from 1992 to 2012. In 2022, Slovenia imported 0.8 bcm, of which 48% came from Russia, 28% from Austria (mainly Russian gas), and 10% from Italy.

  • Energy Prices

    Electricity:

    Electricity prices increased significantly in 2023 despite support measures in the context of the European energy crisis, including a VAT cut and excise duty reductions for all electricity consumers, exemptions of network charge and renewable tax and price caps for households and small businesses).

  • Energy Consumption

    Per capita consumption is 3.1 toe (6% higher than the EU average in 2022). Electricity consumption per capita exceeds 6 200 kWh (13% above the EU average).

  • Issues & Prospects

    Gas:

    According to Plinovodi's latest forecasts, gas consumption should increase from 11.9 TWh in 2023 to 14.7 TWh in 2032 (+2.4%/year), including 1.6 TWh for the power sector (commissioning of the TE-TOL CCGT unit expected in 2024), 6 TWh from industry (+1.3%/year), and 5.7 TWh from buildings (+3.9%/year).
