Slovenia's Ambitious Energy and Climate Plan for 2030
Key Ideas
  • Slovenia aims for a significant shift towards renewables with a target of 55.4% share in electricity, 45.2% in heating, and 25.8% in transportation by 2030.
  • The government plans to invest EUR 57 billion by 2030, with a focus on energy renovation, replacing devices, and boosting renewable energy sources.
  • The country targets a 70% reduction in building emissions, a 30% or higher industrial production from renewables, and aims for 85% power supply from domestic sources by 2030.
  • Slovenia plans to host green hydrogen electrolyzers, invest in hydrogen infrastructure including a pipeline system, and reach a green hydrogen production capacity goal of 100 MW by 2030.
Slovenia has unveiled an ambitious Integrated National Energy and Climate Plan (NECP) for 2030, targeting a significant increase in renewable energy usage. The plan includes a strong focus on reducing greenhouse gas emissions, enhancing energy sustainability, and accelerating the transition to clean energy sources. Investments totaling EUR 57 billion are earmarked for this energy transition, with a major portion dedicated to energy renovation in households and renewable energy generation. The country also aims to achieve a 70% reduction in building emissions and increase industrial production from renewables to 30% by the end of the decade. The plan outlines Slovenia's goal to host green hydrogen electrolyzers, with a target of 100 MW green hydrogen production capacity by 2030. Additionally, investments in hydrogen infrastructure, including a pipeline system and electrolyzers, are projected to reach EUR 223 million. The country also plans to expand energy storage capacity, with 400 MW in battery energy storage systems and additional pumped storage hydropower plants. Slovenia's NECP emphasizes the importance of maintaining high levels of electricity connectivity with neighboring countries and aims for at least 85% of power supply to come from domestic sources by 2030. The plan also includes targets for covering a significant portion of electricity demand with domestic production during peak load hours and sets a coal phase-out deadline of 2033. Overall, the plan aligns with EU directives and underscores Slovenia's commitment to a sustainable and green energy future.
