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.

Energy efficiency in industry improved significantly between 2005 and 2023, with a 43% increase in 2023 compared to 2005. The chemical industry, machinery and equipment manufacturing, non-ferrous metals, and paper manufacturing contributed the most to the improvement, while steel production and non-metallic mineral products contributed the least.

Over the past decade, Slovenia has significantly improved its Eco-Innovation Index, mainly due to the growth in scientific publications, but it still remains slightly below the EU average, as the number of patents and exports of environmental goods and services has declined. Despite this progress, the gap with the EU stood at 4.7% in 2024.

Index includes 12 indicators from five thematic areas. Slovenia is ranked as an average eco-innovation performer. The target value for Slovenia has not been set.

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).

Slovenia’s import dependence has been lower in recent years, amounting to 48% in 2023. Further increases in energy efficiency, the use of renewable sources, and the diversification of supply sources are essential. Slovenia is completely import-dependent for liquid fuels and natural gas. With regard to natural gas, Slovenia is import-dependent on two countries, Austria and Algeria. In the past, gas reaching Austria mostly came from Russia, but in recent years the supply structure has become more diversified due to the war and sanctions.
