The funds are intended for legal entities, and the subsidy scheme will be implemented by electricity market operator Borzen.
Applications can be submitted from May 12, 2026, and the public call will remain open until the funds are allocated, Borzen said.
The public call for subsidies applies to solar power plants for self-consumption with a capacity of up to 1 MW and for batteries co-located with power plants for self-consumption.
Applications can be submitted by legal entities, cooperatives, entrepreneurs, and local authorities.
The PV facility and battery must become operational within 18 months from the date of the subsidy award decision
The maximum subsidy is set at 180 EUR per kWe for solar power plants and 225 EUR per kWe for battery energy storage systems (BESS). Eligible to apply are projects with connection permits issued, and works initiated after January 1, 2025.
The power plant and battery must become operational within 18 months from the date the investment aid award decision is made.
The subsidies will be paid to investors upon confirmation of the payment request, which can be submitted after the facility begins operation, Borzen explained.
In recent years, Slovenia has continuously provided subsidies for prosumers – consumers who generate electricity with solar power plants for self-consumption.
It is also subsidizing batteries for prosumers, in combination with PV plants or independently.
In mid-2025, Borzen, together with the Ministry of the Environment, Climate and Energy, allocated nearly EUR 17 million in grants for businesses planning to install battery energy storage systems.
The maximum amount of subsidy was similar in both public calls.
