Projections show a reduction in SO2, NOx, NMVOC, NH3 and PM 2.5 emissions by 2030, mainly due to more strict legislation and implementing a number of sectoral policy measures. Reduction is inline with set targets for 2020 and 2030. For PM2.5, NMVOC and SO2 emissions in 2030 are only slightly lower than according to targets, so there is a possibility that targets will not be met. To avoid that, it is of great importance that trends are regularly monitored and if necessary additional measures are prepared.

According to data from the Ministry of Infrastructure, a total of 135 self-supply devices were connected in 2016, 720 in 2017, and another 1,302 in 2018. In 2016, 130 solar power plants and 5 hydroelectric power plants were connected with a total nominal power of just under 1.1 MW. In 2017, 718 solar power plants and 2 hydropower plants were connected, and the total nominal power of the connected units was slightly under 6.5 MW. In 2018 there were 1,299 solar power plants connected, 2 hydropower plants, and, for the first time, also 1 wind power plant.

The favorable conservation status of habitat types in Slovenia is reached by just over a third of Europe's important habitat types.In order to achieve the objectives of the EU Biodiversity Strategy, it is necessary to follow the guidelines of the Regulation on Special Conservation Areas (Natura 2000 sites) more rigorously and to implement the Natura 2000 management program. This is especially important for areas with freshwater, wetland, wetland and grassland habitat types.

The conservation status of species in Slovenia indicates that only 30% of species have a favorable status. Furthermore, also the trends are unfavourable. In the years 2013-2018, the proportion of species with favorable conservation status remained stable according to the previous reporting period, while the proportion of species with poor conservation status has increased. As many as one third of Europe's important bird species have a negative or uncertain short-term trend.

Due to lower construction activity, material productivity in Slovenia increased faster than the EU average in the period 2007-2012. In 2018 it amounted to 1.86 PPS / kg, but the target of 3.5 PPS / kg by 2030, with the revival of  construction activity, will be difficult to achieve. Therefore, much more attention needs to be paid to measures for the transition to a circular economy.
