In the first decade of this century, Slovenia directed most of its investments into the road network, particularly in building the motorway system. Railways were neglected also in terms of investments, making them non-competitive with road transport. After 2011, this trend began to change, although the total investment in transport infrastructure decreased after 2008. Since 2010, the country has allocated a larger share of funds to the modernization and upgrade of the railway network.

The frequency of agricultural drought in Slovenia has been increasing in recent decades. Since year 2000, natural disaster due to drought was declared seven times in Slovenia, the most severe of which occurred in 2003, 2012, 2013, 2017 and 2022. Drought keeps occurring with increasing intensity and in areas and seasons where there have not been problems in the past. An additional risk for drought damage in agriculture present rapidly developing droughts in summer (so-called "flash droughts"), which occur during heat waves.

2024 was the second consecutive year with above-average water abundance, with no surface water drought observed in any season. However, over the past twenty years, hydrological droughts of surface waters have become both more frequent and more intense compared to previous periods, with greater variability between individual years. Very dry and very wet years now alternate with periods of hydrologically normal conditions. The drought intensity during the growing season has become more frequent, though it has been less severe in the past decade than in the previous one.

More than half of households in Slovenia have already used financial incentives for energy efficiency and renewable energy sources or are actively considering it. The index of household preferece for financial incentives offered by the Eco Fund increased positively by 4 index points from 2019 to 2022, when it was 52 on a scale from 0 to 100. Preference for these financial incentives varies between regions. On the one hand, knowledge and interest in the Eco Fund services is decreasing, while on the other hand, the share of households that have opted for these services again is increasing.

Almost half of households in single-family houses are in favor of heating with a heat pump. The index was 44 on a scale of 0 to 100 in 2022 and has not changed significantly since 2019. The majority of households in single-family houses still consider the use of renewable energy sources to be important. The share of households considering replacing or supplementing heating with a heat pump, as well as those already using it, increased significantly between 2015 and 2017, and then stabilized. The favorability of heat pumps varies between regions.
