The implicit tax rate on energy in Slovenia amounted to 247 €/toe in 2023, which is 4% higher than in the previous year but still 17% lower than in 2016, when it reached its peak for the period 2012–2023. Compared with the EU-27, it was 3.6% above the EU average in 2023, while it was below the European average only in the years 2020–2022 due to temporary crisis-related measures. In addition to tax policy, the rate is also influenced by changes in the structure of energy consumption and energy efficiency.

Incentives that go against the goal of reducing greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions have increased again after 2021, primarily due to extensive emergency measures introduced in response to rising energy prices. Excluding these temporary measures, the level of such subsidies in 2023 did not change significantly compared to 2020, with their value increasing by approximately 5.7%.

According to the data for 2023, GHG emissions per unit of electricity produced amounted to 166 gCO₂/kWh. In the period 1992–2023, the intensity of GHG emissions decreased by 62,4%. Compared to the EU-27 average, intensity of GHG emissions in Slovenia in 2023 was 19,8% lower.

In 2023, 65% of the population was connected to municipal wastewater treatment systems with secondary or tertiary treatment, which do not produce GHG emissions. Compared to the previous year, the share increased slightly, and compared to 2017, it rose by 3.5 percentage points.

In 2023, the share of RES in transport, after a significant drop in 2022, increased again and amounted to 10%. With this, it was 0.7 percentage points behind the non-binding 2023 target from the National Energy and Climate Plan (NECP).
