The investment focuses on the energy renovation of public buildings and also covers the energy renovation of publicly owned residential buildings. Cumulative energy savings of at least 30 % compared to baseline are foreseen.

The objectives of the investment are energy and sustainable renovation of:

  • public buildings of major administrative and social importance, with an estimated surface area of 80,000 m².
  • buildings with individual upgrades of technical building systems with an estimated surface area of 38,000 m².

Investments include thermal insulation of buildings, energy-efficient equipment (windows, glazing, doors), heating and ventilation systems, energy efficient lighting and control systems.

The aim is to ensure a high health and environmental standard. The renovation of public buildings should also include improving their accessibility for persons with disabilities.

Slovenia is one of Europe’s most seismic countries and energy renovation will be carried out in parallel with the seismic rehabilitation to ensure a cost-effective approach and a long-lasting impact of the investment.

EUR 63.55 million of the Recovery and Resilience Facility is earmarked for this purpose. 

The renovations are expected to be completed by 30 June 2026.
