As of the end of 2024, the share of RES-E in Slovakia's electricity generation increased by a percentage point compared to the previous year, reaching 24.2%. Hydropower continues to lead, comprising 66% of the total installed renewable capacity, followed by solar PV at 29% and bioenergy at 5%.
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.
For the second consecutive year, Slovakia has witnessed notable acceleration in the solar PV sector. This growth has been primarily driven by the declining cost of solar technology, coupled with relatively high energy prices faced by businesses, which has increased interest in PV systems.
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.
