Slovenia implemented a sophisticated system of feed-in tariffs on November 1, 2009 in order to meet its target of 25% renewable electricity generation by 2020.

Renewable generators are offered two tariffs: fixed tariffs or "Guaranteed Purchase" for projects up to 10MW and "Operating Support" for all projects up to 125MW. Operating support is the Slovenian version of the bonus payment system where variable costs reflect changes in the market price of electricity. The Slovenian Energy Agency determines the market price annually used in the calculation of operating support.

In comparison to Slovenia's earlier feed-in tariffs, the revised policy has increased the length of contracts and caps to the sizes of projects, including a review of technology costs to be completed every five years. It has also implemented a 7% solar PV tariff digression through to 2013. 

In addition, Slovenia offers bonus payments for biogas plants using high percentages of farm wastes and "operating support" CHP plants fired with wood biomass.

Slovenia has also introduced tariffs for wood-fired combined heat and power plants.

  • Photovoltaics International 16th Edition

    Photovoltaics International 16th Edition

    This sixteenth edition of Photovoltaics International marks four years of production of the quarterly journal. As always, our focus is on efficiency and quality improvement and cost reduction in manufacturing. As 2012 rolls along, companies are falling by the wayside due to supply and demand issues, ASP declines and drastic governmental subsidy cuts. A clear picture of 2012 is offered through papers from the likes of TÜV Rheinland, Fraunhofer ISE, SEMI PV Group and EPIA, amongst others.

    Photovoltaics International Lite, Volume 05 - 2011

    This digital interactive Lite sees Tom Cheyney follow Agua Caliente’s progress on becoming one of first truly utility-scale PV power farms, where 40–50MW (AC) will be commissioned by the end of the year. We also feature one of the world’s largest silicon thin-film PV power plants, Avenal; a report on warnings of the collapse of module prices from Solarbuzz and PI-Berlin presents tips on PV module testing. A print version of this edition will be distributed at Solar Power International 2011 in Dallas, Texas.
