The data for Slovenia shows that in the past five years, one infant died due to respiratory diseases, specifically in 2021, representing 11.1% of all infant deaths in that year. Research has indicated that air pollution is associated with higher infant mortality rates due to respiratory diseases. However, this relationship is complex, as it is also influenced by other factors such as the presence of allergens, exposure to cigarette smoke, diet, and lifestyle.

The year 2022 was exceptional for electricity production in Slovenia, as difficulties with coal supplies led to the lowest production from solid fuels since 1992, and drought also reduced production from renewable energy sources. This resulted in a record share of nuclear energy in electricity production (42%) and very low total production (13.4 TWh), the lowest since 1999. The share of domestic electricity production was 71%, below the target set in the National Energy and Climate Plan, and the annual production was 40% lower than the gross consumption.

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) cover 17.4% of Slovenia's territory. The land use structure in water protection areas is dominated by forest (62.1 %), followed by grassland (13.5 %) and arable land (10.5 %). The amount of built-up land in the water protection areas is increasing, while a decrease in arable land and an increase in the share of organically farmed land indicate positive changes in the direction of extensification of land use.

Since 2012, the installed capacity of the systems for the production of electricity from RES has increased by 47.3%. More than half of this increase, 24.7%, was achieved in the last three years. The indicator is currently on a trajectory of achieving the indicative targets until 2030 set in the National Energy and Climate Plan (NECP).
