Slovakia 2025 Energy Storage Power Station

How can Slovakia improve its low-carbon electricity generation?

To enhance Slovakia's low-carbon electricity generation, expanding its existing nuclear capacity should be a central strategy. Slovakia's nuclear sector already contributes significantly to its clean electricity mix, and further developments in this area would ensure a robust supply of sustainable energy.

How many residential PV systems were installed in Slovakia in 2024?

This means that over 1,000 residential PV systems put into operation in Slovakia in 2024 could have been equipped with a BESS, resulting in a total additional storage capacity of nearly 7,200 kWh for this category of sources.

How many MW will the Slovak electricity supply by 2040?

In its future projections, the Slovak electricity TSO SEPS anticipates around 700 MW (with an estimated capacity of approx. 1,400 MWh) of BESS in operation by 2040. This is expected to increase gradually from 5 MW installed in 2022, reaching 260 MW by 2030 and 468 MW by 2035.

Should Slovakia invest in solar energy?

Slovakia's nuclear sector already contributes significantly to its clean electricity mix, and further developments in this area would ensure a robust supply of sustainable energy. Moreover, investing in solar energy can complement nuclear power's base load capabilities, offering a balanced and resilient path forward.
