This photovoltaic installation – the longest solar noise barrier in Slove- nia – will supply 46 households with electrical power. HEATING WITH BIOMASS The second project component is the use of biomass for heating in 32 selected public buildings. For this purpose, 14 oil heating systems will be replaced by biomass boilers. Among the 32 buildings are schools and kindergartens with nearly 2,000 children as well as two information centres in Triglav National Park which are visited by 45,000 people every year.

  • Electricity Markets During the Liberalization: the Case of a European Union Country
    energies Article Electricity Markets during the Liberalization: The Case of a European Union Country Štefan Bojnec * and Alan Križaj Faculty of Management, University of Primorska, Izolska vrata 2, SI-6101 Koper-Capodistria, Slovenia; [email protected] * Correspondence: [email protected] or [email protected] Abstract: This paper analyzes electricity markets in Slovenia during the specific period of market deregulation and price liberalization. The drivers of electricity prices and electricity consumption are investigated. The Slovenian electricity markets are analyzed in relation with the European Energy Exchange (EEX) market. Associations between electricity prices on the one hand, and primary energy prices, variation in air temperature, daily maximum electricity power, and cross-border grid prices on the other hand, are analyzed separately for industrial and household consumers. Monthly data are used in a regression analysis during the period of Slovenia’s electricity market deregulation and price liberalization. Empirical results show that electricity prices achieved in the EEX market were significantly associated with primary energy prices. In Slovenia, the prices for daily maximum electricity power were significantly associated with electricity prices achieved on the EEX market. The increases in electricity prices for households, however, cannot be explained with developments in electricity prices on the EEX market. As the period analyzed is the stage of market deregulation and price liberalization, this can have important policy implications for the countries that still have regulated and monopolized electricity markets. Opening the electricity markets is expected to increase competition and reduce pressures for electricity price increases. However, the experiences Citation: Bojnec, Š.; Križaj, A.

Key information about renewable energy in Slovenia Slovenia’s share of installed renewable capacity amounts to almost 10 percent of the total installed electricity capacity. However, the technical potential – particularly for solar power – if fully exploited would be more than five times as much than the current total installed capacity. To increase its share in renewable energy electricity production, the Government of Slovenia promotes electricity generated from renewable sources with a feed-in tariff. Eligible is electricity produced from wind, solar, geothermal, biogas, biomass and hydropower plants. The maximum eligibility period for the feed-in tariff is 15 years and it applies only

  • Renewable Sources of Energy: Hydro-Electricity in Slovenia
    Š. Bojnec, D. Papler Obnovljivi izvori energije: hidro električna energija u Sloveniji ISSN 1330-3651 UDC/UDK 620.92:621.311.21(497.4) RENEWABLE SOURCES OF ENERGY: HYDRO-ELECTRICITY IN SLOVENIA Štefan Bojnec, Drago Papler Original scientific paper Electricity supply in Slovenia is largely dependent on traditional non-renewable sources of electrical energy. In spite of some efforts made to change the sources of electrical energy, not significant shifts from traditional non-renewable fossil sources of electrical energy to renewable sources of electrical energy are found. Electricity supply from water resources is dependent on natural conditions, but it is particularly biased on the adverse weather conditions. The changing weather conditions between raining and sunshine periods are a reason for the needs to diversify supply of electrical energy from hydro renewable sources of energy to a combination with solar energy and co-production of energy from biomass and other renewable sources of energy. There is a need for changes in green electrical energy supply not only towards hydro resources, but particularly towards other renewable sources of electrical energy such as solar, biomass, thermal water, wind and biogas energy. Keywords: electricity supply, hydro-electricity, renewable sources of energy, Slovenia Obnovljivi izvori energije: hidro električna energija u Sloveniji Izvorni znanstveni članak Ponuda električne energije u Sloveniji značajno je ovisna o tradicionalnim ne-obnovljivim izvorima električne energije. Bez obzira na određene napore da se promijeni izvore ponude električne energije, nisu postignute značajnije promjene od tradicionalnih neobnovljivih fosilnih izvora električne energije na obnovljive izvore električne energije. Ponuda električne energije iz hidro izvora ovisna je o prirodnim uvjetima pa je značajno ovisna i o promjenjivim vremenskim uvjetima.

    RADIOACTIVE WASTE MANAGEMENT PROGRAMMES IN OECD/NEA MEMBER COUNTRIES SLOVENIA [2013] NATIONAL NUCLEAR ENERGY CONTEXT Production of nuclear energy plays a significant role in the national electricity supply. In The Resolution on the National Energy Programme that is currently being revised (in public hearing), nuclear energy shall remain an important factor in generation of electric energy in Slovenia in the coming decades. Electricity Production by Energy Sources 2012* Type of Energy Percentages (%) Nuclear* 40 Fossile 38 Hydro 22 * only one half of the nuclear electric energy produced in Slovenia’s NPP Krško is supplied to Slovenia. The other half is, based on a bilateral agreement, supplied to the Republic of Croatia. 1 Hydro 22% Nuclear* 40% Fossile 38% Nuclear* Fossile Hydro SOURCES, TYPES AND QUANTITIES OF WASTE Nuclear Programme The Republic of Slovenia has a small nuclear programme: one operating nuclear power plant, one research reactor and one central storage facility for radioactive waste from small producers. In addition, there is also a uranium mine and mill in the decommissioning stage at Žirovski vrh. The geographical locations of the nuclear and radiation facilities are given in the figure below. The Republic of Slovenia has no facility for final disposal of radioactive waste or spent nuclear fuel, however the site for LILW repository has been approved. Figure 1: Nuclear programme in the Republic of Slovenia 2 The Krško Nuclear Power Plant It is a Westinghouse two-loop Pressurised Water Reactor with nominal output power 727/696 MWe (gross electrical power/net electrical power). It started with commercial operation in 1983 and is designed to operate until the end of 2023.
