(AGENPARL) – BRUXELLES gio 25 maggio 2023 EU support for the implementation of Slovenia’s National Recovery and Resilience Plan (NRRP) amounts to €2 482.3 million, and includes €1 776.9 million in grants and €705.4 million in loans. This amount should be committed by the end of 2023, and paid out to Slovenia by the end of 2026. While the overall allocation represents only 0.3 % of the total Recovery and Resilience Facility (RRF), it stood at 5.1 % of the country’s gross domestic product (GDP) in 2019 (the RRF being 5.2 % of EU-27 GDP in 2019). In June 2022, Slovenia’s grant allocation was revised downwards to 1.49 billion (-16 %). However, thanks to the February 2023 agreement enabling Member States to add REPowerEU chapters to their plans, Slovenia’s envelope will be replenished with €116.9 million in grants to be spent on energy measures. Slovenia has already decided to use 22 % of the maximum amount of loans available, and has declared its intention to request a further amount. With €1 038 per citizen (grants and loans), Slovenia is among the 10 biggest RRF beneficiaries per capita. So far, Slovenia has received €280.6 million in grants (€231 million in pre-financing and €49.6 million for the first instalment), but no payments for loans. Remaining payments – nine instalments for grants and six for loans – will depend on progress in implementing the plan. Slovenia’s NRRP tackles both the COVID-19 pandemic’s socio-economic consequences and more long-standing challenges identified in the Slovenian development strategy 2030. The plan is strongly focused on the green and digital transitions. Planned spending on these areas exceeds the compulsory targets, totalling 42.4 % for climate and 21.4 % for digital. Other priority areas include smart, sustainable and inclusive growth, and health and welfare. The European Parliament participates in interinstitutional forums for cooperation and discussion on RRF implementation, and scrutinises the European Commission’s work. This briefing is one in a series covering all EU Member States. Second edition. The ‘NGEU delivery’ briefings are updated at key stages throughout the lifecycle
