Slovenia has officially kicked off the development of its next Comprehensive National Energy and Climate Plan (NECP), mapping out the nation’s strategic framework for the 2030–2040 decade. To lay a robust foundation for future policy, the government is urging both citizens and industry experts to contribute to the design of long-term development scenarios. The public consultation window for these foundational scenarios is open from now until 22 June 2026.
As the primary blueprint guiding Slovenia’s green transition, the NECP aligns near-term infrastructure development with overarching climate targets. The decades leading up to 2040 are widely considered critical, as capital-intensive investments made today in transportation, building efficiency, manufacturing, and grid infrastructure will dictate whether the country meets its ultimate climate targets.
The modeling of these new scenarios is anchored by two major environmental benchmarks: the European Union’s target of 90% net emission reduction by 2040 compared to 1990 levels, and Slovenia’s domestic pledge to attain full climate neutrality by 2045.
