Energy prices increased in the period 2008-2012. In the same period, the most raised the price of the natural gas industry (almost 53 %), followed by price for natural gases for households by 38%, the price of heating oil, for household electricity, the price of petrol NMB 95, diesel D2, at least has raised the price of electricity for industry, for less than 6%.

Although electricity and heat generation increased by 30% between 1990 and 2021, CO2 emissions decreased by 31.5%, mainly due to the increase in generation efficiency, as well as to the increase in RES and nuclear generation. SO2 emissions decreased by almost 99%, mainly due to the installation of desulphurisation, the increase in generation efficiency and share of RES and nuclear generation.

Water protection areas (WPA) comprise approximately 17% of the territory of Slovenia. Going by land use in these areas, forest (61.1%) prevails, followed by grassland (13.6%) and arable fields (10.9%). Ecologically farmed land represents only 1.7% of total WPAs and 6.04% of agricultural land on WPAs, with grassland representing the largest share at 79.6%.

In 2019, Slovenia's ecological footprint amounted to 5.23 gha per inhabitant, which places our country below the European Union average (5.42 gha per inhabitant). Carbon footprint contributes 56% of the ecological footprint, so it should receive comparatively more attention. A significant share of the ecological footprint is also represented by forest products (23.1%). According to the categories of consumption, housing and personal transport contribute the most to the ecological footprint in Slovenia. Goods is the category with the least contribution to the ecological footprint.

In 2021, the energy reduction in the energy efficiency obligation scheme (energy amounted to 610.4 GWh. A bigger share of the savings, 57%, was achieved through the implementation of energy efficiency (EE) and renewable energy source (RES) measures within the Eco Fund programs. The annual target value was exceeded by a third. For 2022, according to preliminary data, the achieved energy savings are estimated at 700.8 GWh, which is 15% more than the previous year and 53% above the target value.
