1. South East Europe Regional Consultation Meeting Bucharest, Romania 6 – 7 October 2016
Session II: Opportunities and Challenges in RE Deployment in the Region
Slovenia

2. Renewable energy target for 2020
Directive 2009/28/ES– 25 % RES in final energy use
Sectoral goals by NREAP 2020:
Electricity – 39 %
Heating & cooling – 34 %
Transport – 10 % 10 20 30 40 50 60 70 80

TARGET 25%
In accordance to RES Directive Slovenia is bound to reach 25% of RES in gross final energy use until 2020 – the goal defined in the Action plan for RES , adopted in July 2010 by the Government. 25% share of renewables in final energy use and 10 % in transport by 2020; sectoral goals 2020

Projections in the field of total primary energy supply (TPES)- share of other RES will incease significally.

5. Sectoral Goals for achieving RES target

6. RES for heating to 2030

7. Electricity generation from RES in 2014 (%)

8. Scenario for Electricy Production from RES to 2030

9. Exploatation of river potential until 2030
Until 2030 further 13,6 p.p. exploited;
share of exploatation of river increased to 62%,
included two location in Natura 2000

10. Slovenia with the highest share of area under Natura 2000
Reference scenario:
25,8% RES without HE in Natura 2000

11. CHALLENGES
Natura 2000 covers 38% of our territory: barriers for exploitation of hydro potential!
Conflict between protection of Natura and RES goals at EU level;
Long procedure to demonstrate overriding public interes; in energy sector on EU level has not been performed yet
RES investmets therefore not clear and more expensive (conservation and compensatory measures)
costs of habitats protection should not be turned over to investors (long-term monitoring, various detailed studies…)!

12. Energy refurbishment of Buildings
Lower energy consumption in buildings
-16% by 2030
Higer RES use
2/3 in 2030 (without District heating and electricity)
Lower aggregate RES consumption
-6 % by 2030
Low potential in Heating for increasing agregate RES
Only potentials in Electricity
Natura 2000?

13. RES potential in Heating
Use of RES in industry
Limited
Higher EE of boilers
Lower RES
Air polution policy
Use of biomass limited

14. Energy consumption by sectors

15. Discussion Benchmarks by sectors (E, H&C, T)
RES target must support other goals; like air pollution, biodiversity, competitiveness, EE, security of supply
National targets or measures on EU level (RES market?)
