Inland bathing water quality in Slovenia is good and comparable with bathing water quality in other European countries.

In 2021, EU-27 GHG emissions increased by 5.1 % compared to 2020 and was 30% lower than in the base year 1990. In 2021, Slovenian GHG emissions increased by 0.8% compared to 2020. Emissions from non-ETS sectors were as much as 5.5% higher than in 2020, but 22% lower than in 2005.

Incentives that go against the goal of reducing greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions have grown steadily until 2017 but have declined recently. In 2021, compared to the previous year, they increased slightly again, by 3%. The refunds on diesel excise duties, which have decreased compared to the year 2020, still represented 31 % of all incentives that go against the goal of reducing GHG emissions. Incentives direct consumers towards higher GHG emissions, so additional measures are needed to achieve the GHG emission reduction target, which is generally also more expensive.

The implicit energy tax rate fluctuates throughout the entire observed period, but recently it has been gradually declining. In 2021, the value of the indicator for Slovenia was 7% lower than the EU-27 average. Before 2009, when it increased significantly, it was notably lower than the EU average. The reasons for the differences can be found mainly in the differences in the structure of energy use, where the share of liquid fuels for motor vehicles is significantly higher in Slovenia, and in the taxation levels of individual energy sources.

The emission productivity in Slovenia improved in 2021 and amounted to 2,79 EUR₂₀₁₀/kg CO₂ ekv. Despite the progress made in recent years, is, however, the progress in emission productivity in Slovenia when compared to the European Union (EU), still relatively slow, thus there is a need to further strengthen the connection between economic development and measures for reducing GHG emissions.
