With large hydropower and water works, however, have shown their negative impacts on the environment and local ecosystems. From this perspective, the environmental resources considered acceptable with smaller hydropower installed capacity, ie.
In Slovakia, hydropower is used as a renewable source for electricity production in hydropower plants, which are divided according to output into small hydropower plants up to 10 MW and large hydropower plants with a capacity of over 10 MW.

The current Slovakia''s NECP projects a solar PV target of 1,200 MW cumulatively installed in 2030. While the NECP does not specify the cha-racter of these capacities, it is to be assumed that both ground-mounted and rooftop PV will play a role in harvesting Slovakia''s solar potential.
Geothermal waters in Slovakia are being used at 64 locations (with a heating capacity of 280 MW) but more need to be built to heat networks, swimming pools, greenhouses and residences. The technical potential for large hydropower plants is 7,600 GWh, of which 62% of is currently used.
Renewable energy sources (RES) in the form of small water systems (small hydropower) is potential for further development of the Slovak Republic. Question of RES and their utilization is becoming a topic of political and social issues.
The first auction for the production of green energy in Slovakia was canceled on March 31. While Hungary and Estonia recently announced the results of their first auctions, in other countries, including Slovakia, the dates of further auctions and deadlines are postponed due to problems in supply chains as a consequence of

Slovakia has a long way back with nuclear power. The first reactor (experimental) was completed back in 1972 - built by Skoda conglomerate (their nuclear energy division) There are two
The Cierny Vah Pumped Storage Hydroelectric Power Plant Slovakia plant is a Hydro power plant located in 🇸🇰 Slovakia. Cierny Vah Pumped Storage Hydroelectric Power Plant Slovakia has a
In Slovakia, nuclear power plants still hold the lead in electricity generation, producing 60.11% of all electricity last year. This was followed by hydropower plants with 15%, biomass-based sources with 4.14% and solar power plants with 2.57% of
In Slovakia, hydro. power is considered as the most common use of renewable energy to produce electricity. Based . hydropower potential available for electricity generation is 7,361 GWh per

Over the last decade, Slovakia witnessed a gradual increase in the installed capacity of hydropower plants – mainly ones falling into the category of small hydropower plants (SHPPs) with lower installed capacity of up to 10 MW and micro-ones of up to 100 kW. The total capacity of hydropower peaked at 2,574 MW in 2021.
In line with the 2050 Pathways Explorer model, Slovakia should aim for the installed capacity of hydropower of at least 2,671 MW. Nevertheless, the vast majority of projected development is expected to take place after 2030, with an overall increase of 95 MW until 2050.
fifth (17%), and bioenergy with a small share of 6%. There are only 3 MW of installed wind capacity and no existing geothermal plants 2,574 MW generating electricity in Slovakia. ded in Graph 1.
Soaring energy prices, new re-served capacities for renewables, and a few incentive schemes, among other factors, are likely to result in new large-scale solar PV plants being deployed in Slovakia, significantly increasing the installed capacity in coming years.
At the end of 2022, geothermal energy is not used in electricity pro-duction, but only to a limited degree for heat production and recreatio-nal use. This makes it the only RES-E technology in Slovakia without any installed capacity. Slovakia’s overall (probable) geothermal potential is calculated at around 6,200 MWt.
A major investment, currently in the permitting process, consists of the construction of the largest battery storage facility in Slovakia and a photovoltaic power plant with a planned capacity of 30 MW. The plant is expected to have 54,000 double-sided photovoltaic panels.
