[EN16] Primary energy consumption by fuel
Driving forces

Key message
Neutral

Primary energy consumption amounted to 6,470 ktoe in 2021 and increased by 2.7 % compared to the previous year. The increase was a result of an increase in the final energy consumption due to the economic recovery after the coronavirus pandemic and a colder year 2021, while the electricity production decreased compared to the previous year. Primary energy consumption was 258 ktoe (3.8%) lower than the indicative target value for 2021 from the currrent National Energy and Climate Plan (NECP), while it slightly lagged behind the annual indicative target from the proposal for the NECP update. In the structure of primary energy consumption liquid fuels (31.7%) dominated again in 2021, followed by nuclear energy (23.0%), renewable energy sources (18.5%), solid fuels (14.4%) and natural gas (11.9%). Compared to 2005, the primary energy consumption decreased by 13% in Slovenia and by 11% in the EU-27.
