[EN24] The share of renewables in final energy consumption
Driving forces

Key message
Bad

In 2022, taking into account only the production of energy from RES in Slovenia, Slovenia achieved a 22.9% share of RES in gross final energy consumption. To achieve a binding 25% national target share of RES under the Directive 2009/28/EC, Slovenia purchased the missing production from RES. In 2023, the share of RES in gross final energy consumption was 25.1%, which is 5.3 percentage points more than in 2005. The increase in the share of RES in 2023 is the result of an increase in the use of RES in the electricity production sector. The share in heating and cooling as well as the share in transport sector, are still significantly lagging behind the planned development.
