Abstract
Institutions & Energy Policy
Slovenia became a member of the European Union in 2004, and in 2007 it adopted the euro as its national currency.
The Energy Directorate of the Ministry of Infrastructure is in charge of defining the energy policy objectives.
The Energy Agency is in charge of regulating the energy markets.

Issues & Prospects
Gas:
According to Plinovodi's latest forecasts, gas consumption should increase by 1.6%/year on average between 2021 and 2030. This increase would be driven by electricity generation (+4.3%/year), following the commissioning of the TE-TOL plant in 2021. Gas consumption in industry and other sectors should grow slightly (+1.3%/year in industry, +1%/year for other sectors).
