Highlights

  • Slovakia aims to reach 19% of renewables in final energy consumption in 2030.
  • The country unveiled its first climate law and confirms its objective to be carbon neutral in 2050.
  • Historical companies still dominate the power and gas markets: 71% of power generation for SE and 69% of gas sales for SPP.
  • E.ON controls most of power distribution and sales.
  • Slovnaft operates the sole refinery.
  • Nuclear dominates the power mix, with 60% in 2023. Unit 3 of Mochovce nuclear power plant was commissioned in 2023.
  • Slovakia closed its last coal-fired power plant in 2024.
  • Gas and electricity prices for industry skyrocketed by 123% and 83%, respectively, in 2022, before stabilising in 2023.
  • Primary energy intensity to the GDP is decreasing very rapidly (2.8%/year since 2010).
  • Gas consumption dropped by 19% in 2022, as consumption from the power sector plummeted by 43% due to rising gas prices.
  • Unit 4 of Mochovce will be commissioned in 2025.
  • Slovakia is strengthening its gas interconnections in Central Europe and is planning a major gas pipeline to Bulgaria.

  • Institutions & Energy Policy

    The Ministry of Economy is responsible for energy issues through its Energy Section.

    The Office for Regulation of Network Industries (URSO) regulates the electricity and gas sector. The Ministry of Economy may reject the decisions taken by the regulator regarding energy prices but is obliged to publish its objections.

  • Energy Supply

    Oil:

    Slovakia produces very limited amounts of crude oil (0.3 Mt in 2023), which is used in the petrochemical industry only.

  • Energy Prices

    Gas:

    Gas prices increased by 20% for households in 2023 to €5.9C/kWh GCV, after experiencing an 18% rise in 2022 and a 10% drop in 2021. Households prices increased by 5.7%/year over 2017-2020. These prices were 61% below the EU average in 2023.

  • Energy Consumption

    At 3.2 toe, total energy consumption per capita is 14% above the EU average; power consumption per capita is 23% lower (4 114 kWh) (2023).

    Total energy consumption increased by 1.2% in 2023 to 17.1 Mtoe, after a 7% drop in 2022; it is close to its 2019 level. It fell between 2002 and 2014 (-1.3%/year), then recovered until 2017 (+2.9%/year until 2017) before stabilising until 2019.

  • Issues & Prospects

    Electricity:

    According to SEPS's Ten-Year Network Development Plan (TYNDP) 2020-2029, electricity consumption should increase by an average rate of 1.2%/year until 2028, to nearly 36 TWh. The installed capacity should increase by more than 1 GW, delivering 8 TWh of new power generation, of which 0.9 GW from nuclear (new Mochovce units).
