The Energy Policy of the Slovak Republic (Energy Policy) is the strategic document defining the energy sector's primary objectives and priorities to 2035 with a view to 2050. The Energy Policy is a component of Slovakia's national economic strategy given that ensuring sustainable economic growth is conditioned by the reliable supply of price-competitive energy.

The Ministry of Economy of the Slovak Republic (Ministry of Economy) is responsible for completing the Energy Policy for a minimum period of 20 years and updating it on a five-year cycle at a minimum pursuant to Section 88 of Act No. 251/2012 Coll. on Energy and on amendment of certain acts as amended by Act No. 391/2012 Coll. (Act No. 251/2012 Coll. on Energy). Economic development, new trends in the liberalisation of energy markets in the European Union (EU), new legislation and the new EU energy policy also required an update of the Energy Policy adopted in 2006.

The Energy Policy is intended to ensure the sustainability of the Slovak energy sector to contribute to the sustainable growth of the national economy and its competitiveness. The priority from this perspective is ensuring the reliability and stability of energy supply, efficient energy utilisation at optimum costs and ensuring environmental protection. A well-functioning energy market with a competitive environment will be strengthened by Energy Policy implementation .

The task of the Energy Policy is to create a stable framework for a safely operating energy market that spurs on investments into energy. The Energy Policy is focused on the public as well as the private sector. It responds to the interests of customers and end users in order to maximise the exploitation of the advantages offered by a liberalised and secure energy market. The Energy Policy complies with the primary objectives of the Treaty of Lisbon and is based on the fundamental European goals for energy outlines in the Europe 2020 strategy. Slovakia is among a group of vulnerable countries with respect to energy security, and therefore it supports an energy architecture that creates the conditions for increasing energy self-sufficiency, pro-export capacity in electricity, transparency and optimisation of the energy mix with low-carbon technologies and increasing energy efficiency in the interests of stability, the development of the national economy and the interests of customers and their protection.

Close cooperation between the countries of Central and Southeastern Europe is key with respect to increasing the energy security of the entire region and is the driving force for Slovakia's active involvement in the creation of trans-European energy infrastructure, in particular in cooperation with Visegrád Four (V4) countries. The Energy Policy emphasises the optimum use of domestic energy sources and low-carbon technologies such as renewable energy sources (RES) and nuclear energy.  A major milestone in the Slovak energy sector was the implementation of the Third Energy Package of the European Parliament and of the Council and directives concerning common rules for the internal market in electricity and gas upon the adoption of the Energy Act and the Act on Regulation of Network Industries at the end of July 2012.

The $7 Trillion AI Boom Is Turning Into The Energy Trade of the Century

You might think that Shark Tank’s “Mr. Wonderful,” Kevin O’Leary, is betting it all on AI, but he is not. He is betting on the $5+ trillion in infrastructure required to run it, and that’s where big capital is flowing now. And he’s betting on Bitzero (NASDAQ: AIBZ) to be one of the first to break AI’s biggest chokepoint: power. Bitzero was looking further ahead while most of the rest of the market was narrowly focused on AI software and semiconductors. As a result, on May 5th, Bitzero…

Oil Markets Are Pricing A Supply Surge That Isn’t Guaranteed

Crude oil prices are in freefall after the United States and Iran agreed on a ceasefire, set to last 60 days. Traders expect the ceasefire to unleash an avalanche of crude, and indeed, tankers are leaving the Persian Gulf in growing numbers. And yet Iran just struck a commercial ship in Hormuz. Bloomberg reported earlier this week that the ceasefire prompted huge discounts in available crude cargoes, noting how Angolan crude was selling at a $10 discount to dated Brent—for the first time in a decade. Not only this, but Chinese refiners were…

The World's Biggest Energy Bet Is No Longer on Fossil Fuels

For years, critics of the energy transition have made essentially the same argument. Renewable energy was supposedly too expensive, too dependent on subsidies, too intermittent, and too vulnerable to survive a serious energy security crisis. Sooner or later, they argued, governments and investors would return to the comfort of oil, gas, and coal. The latest figures from the International Energy Agency suggest the opposite is happening. According to the IEA's newly released World Energy Investment 2026 report, global investment in clean energy has…

The World Is Racing to Develop New Nuclear Fuels

In the age of the nuclear renaissance, several countries are strategising to significantly increase their nuclear energy capacity over the coming decades, as part of efforts to diversify their energy mix and boost long-term energy security. However, securing fuel to power operations has been complicated, particularly following the introduction of sanctions on Russian energy products. Now, alternative uranium fuels offer promise for the nuclear energy industry. Nuclear fission, used in all existing nuclear power plants, is the process in which an…

China Eyes a Major Opportunity in Post-War Iran

Beijing is positioning itself to lead the post-war reconstruction effort in Tehran - a move analysts suggest could secure China long-term access to critical Iranian oil reserves. The diplomatic groundwork was laid during a recent meeting in New Delhi between Chinese Foreign Minister Wang Yi and the deputy secretary of Iran's Supreme National Security Council, according to Nikkei Asia. The talks underscore China's broader strategy to expand its economic and diplomatic footprint in the Middle East amid the vacuum left in the wake of one failed US…
