Decent work and economic growth

Nuclear power plants, with their competitiveness, reliability, and sustainable production, ensure the availability of electrical energy to various economic and service activities in all weather conditions. Nuclear power plant performance enhances output and increases economic growth; besides, nuclear industry provides a number of quality jobs directly and indirectly.

Production performance

Due to all upgrades in past decades NEK produces one TWh more electrical energy

Production performance

Long-term operation of NEK means sustainable use of space – the existing facility on small NEK area produces large quantity of electrical energy

Security of supply

Reliable supply of electrical energy is a requirement for normal functioning of a modern society

In focus

Security of supply

In 2021, Slovenia again among the top twenty in the world on the Energy Trilemma Index

Low-carbon footprint

CO₂ emissions rise when NEK does not operate

Quality of life and development

Slovenia meets high nuclear safety standards
