It is derived from the most recent key economic indicators, supply and demand factors, oil and gas pricing trends and major energy issues and developments surrounding the energy industry. The report provides a complete picture of the country situation, dynamics, current issues and future prospects. With market data and continuous follow-up of markets news, this report brings clear and concise insights with which to tackle national energy challenges and opportunities. Browse the tabs below for a detailed table of contents, the list of graphs and tables, and details on the data files.

Highlights

  • By 2030, Slovakia aims to reach 19% of renewables in final energy consumption.
  • Historical companies still dominate the power and gas markets: 62% of power generation for SE and 59% of gas sales to end customers for SPP.
  • E.ON controls most power distribution and sales.
  • Slovnaft operates the sole refinery.
  • Nuclear dominates the power mix with more than half of power generation.
  • Most of the oil and gas supplies were imported from Russia in 2021.
  • Residential electricity and gas prices are significantly lower than the EU average (by 25% and 35%, respectively) and have decreased considerably since 2013.
  • Primary energy intensity to the GDP is decreasing very rapidly (3%/year since 2010).
  • Gas consumption rose by 12% in 2021, as consumption from the power sector surged by 22%.
  • Two nuclear units will be commissioned in 2023 and 2024.
  • Slovakia is strengthening its gas interconnections in Central Europe and is planning a major gas pipeline to Bulgaria.

  • Institutions & Energy Policy

    Energy issues are the responsibility of the Ministry of Economy, 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, which is used in the petrochemical industry only.

  • Energy Prices

    Gas:

    Gas prices fell by 10% for households in 2021, while prices for industry surged by 25%, after showing divergent trends over 2017-2020 (+5.7%/year for households and -2.8%/year for industry). Gas prices soared between 2000 and 2012 (+10%/year for industry and +12%/year for households) before declining until 2017 (-6.8%/year for industry and -3.3%/year for households).

  • Energy Consumption

    At 3.3 toe, total energy consumption per capita is 7% above the EU average; power consumption per capita is 14% lower (4 900 kWh) (2021).

    Total energy consumption surged in 2021 to 17.9 Mtoe after a 3% drop in 2020, surpassing its 2019 levels (pre-Covid) by 4.5%. It fell between 2002 and 2014 (-1.3%/year), then recovered until 2017 (+2.9%/year until 2017) before stabilising in 2018.

  • Issues & Prospects

    Oil:

    Transpetrol's projects to expand its crude oil pipeline network have made no progress. The Druzhba-Adria Pipeline Integration Project (extension of the Druzhba oil pipeline to Hungary and Croatia) remains in limbo.

  • 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 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).

The Slovakia country report is complemented with a national power generation dashboard (excel file) from our Power Plant Tracker Service.

Data included in the excelsheet:

  • New capacities: Current power mix, installed capacity at date, capacity under construction and under development.
  • Power Sector Performances: Historical data on installed capacity, power generation, thermal power plants inputs, average thermal power plant efficiency, CO2 emissions of the power sector, carbon factor of the power sector.
