Slovakia energy report

• Institutions & Energy Policy

  Energy issues are the responsibility of the Ministry of Economy, through its Energy Section.

  The Office for Regulation ofNetwork 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 Companies

  Gas:

  In recent years, the Slovak gas market was marked by significant shareholder changes. In 2013, GDF SUEZ (now Engie) and E.ON Ruhrgas sold to EPH their 24.5% stakes in national gas utility SPP, which they acquired in 2002.

• Energy Supply

  Oil:

  Slovakia produces limited amounts of crude oil (around 0.4 Mt on average since 2013, 0.3 Mt in 2018), which is used in the petrochemical industry only.

• Energy Prices

  Electricity:

  Industrial prices fell by 6%/year between 2013 and 2016 and have been increasing slightly since then (+4.7%/year until 2019), whereas residential prices declined by 4.7%/year between 2013 and 2017 and grew by 3.4%/year until 2019. Previously, electricity prices doubled between 2000 and 2013. Residential electricity prices in Slovakia are much cheaper than the EU average (-31% in 2018).

• Energy Consumption

  At 3.1 toe, total energy consumption per capita is on par with the EU average; power consumption per capita stands 17% lower, at 4 700 kWh (2018).

  Total energy consumption, which had been declining between 2002 and 2014 (-1.3%/year), has been recovering since then (+2.3%/year) to 17.5 Mtoe in 2018 (+0.3% in 2018).

• Issues & Prospects

  Gas:

  According to Eustream, gas consumption is expected to remain stable until 2029, at around 135 GWh/d (around 4.8 bcm/year).

In the Slovakia energy market report you will find the following tables:

• Economic Indicators: Annual historical data including population, GDP growth, imports and exports, inflation rate, energy security and efficiency indicators, CO₂ emissions.
• Supply Indicators: Historical data including oil and gas reserves, electric and refining capacity, energy production, power production and external trade. All are detailed by energy source
• Demand Indicators: Historical data including consumption per inhabitant, consumption trends, total consumption by energy source, final consumption by energy source and sector, and electricity consumption by sector.
• Energy Balances: Single table displaying the overall energy industry balance per annum, also graphically displayed by energy sub-segment.
• Infrastructure Projects: Covers power plant projects by energy, technology, status and operator.

The Slovakia energy market data since 1990 and up to 2018 is included in the Excel file accompanying the Slovakia country report.
It showcases the historical evolution, allowing users to easily work with the data.

Key Data included in the excelsheet:

• Economic indicators: Annual historical economic indicators, energy security, energy efficiency and CO₂ emissions.
• Supply indicators: Annual historical reserves, capacity, production and external trade (imports(+) exports(-) balance).
• Demand indicators: Annual historical consumption per capita, consumption trends, total consumption, final consumption (per energy and per sector) and electricity consumption total and per sector.
• Energy Balance: total and per energy.
• Slovakia Energy Prices: In addition to the analysis provided on the report we also provided a data set which includes historical details on the Slovakia energy prices for the follow items: price of premium gasoline (taxes incl.), price of diesel (taxes incl.), price of electricity in industry (taxes incl.), price of electricity for households (taxes incl.), price of natural gas in industry (taxes incl.), prices of natural gas for households (taxes incl.), spot price of Brent and CO₂ emissions (from fuel combustion).
