Abstract
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 Supply
Resources:
Slovakia's hydrocarbons reserves are limited (4.3 bcm of gas and 1.5 Mt of crude oil at the end of 2019). It has significant reserves of lignite (135 Mt). The country's hydropower potential is estimated at 10 TWh/year.
Energy Prices
Electricity:
Industrial and residential electricity prices increased between 2017 and 2019; in 2020, industrial prices dipped by 1.7%, while residential prices rose by 5.7%. Previously, electricity prices doubled between 2000 and 2013, before declining by 4%/year on average until 2016. Taxes account for 17% of residential prices (only 1% for industrial prices) in 2019.
Energy Consumption
At 3.1 toe, total energy consumption per capita is in line with the EU average; power consumption per capita is 10% lower (5 000 kWh) (2019).
Total energy consumption declined by 3.2% in 2019 to less than 17 Mtoe. It fell between 2002 and 2014 (-1.3%/year), then recovered until 2017 (+2.9%/year until 2017) before stabilising in 2018.
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).
