Characteristics of the particular area in terms of its development potential

Slovenia, as well as other European countries, is involved in global development trends. It is not an island, which means that just like the rest of Europe it cannot avoid the challenges of the modern era posed by energy supply and environment protection and at the formal level also by obligations arising from international commitments in the area of efficient energy consumption and the use of renewable energy sources.

The change in the run-of-the-mill supply with energy offers excellent opportunities and at the same time it is a huge engineering challenge on the road to the achievement of development objectives in the future. In a combination with different measures within the framework of the so-called energy triangle – reducing the needs on the one hand, developing energy-efficient technologies for renewable sources on the other hand, and the implementation of advanced technologies as the third aspect. In a nutshell: the energy generation and distribution area has the pole position thanks to its true potential for immense, global effects.

The structure of energy consumption:

• buildings (heating, ventilation/air-conditioning): 43%,
• transport: 31%,
• buildings other 6%,
• other 20%.
  

Areas identified as having development potential
