The Ministry of Economy is achieving milestones of the Slovakia's Recovery and Resilience Plan. Most of the measures are scheduled for reporting under the 8th and 9th payment requests
The Ministry of Economy of the Slovak Republic is one of the ministries that has consistently made strong progress in implementing measures under Slovakia’s Recovery and Resilience Plan. Most of the investments and reforms under its responsibility are in an advanced stage of implementation and are progressing towards the successful fulfilment of the milestones required for the 8th and 9th payment requests. These issues were discussed today during a meeting between Deputy Prime Minister for the Recovery and Resilience Plan Tomáš Drucker and Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of Economy Denisa Saková.
The Ministry of Economy is currently implementing hundreds of projects, primarily in the energy sector. These projects focus on supporting the deployment and modernization of renewable energy capacity, strengthening and modernizing the distribution grid, improving the energy efficiency of public buildings, and building infrastructure for electric mobility, including ultra-fast charging stations. These investments also contribute to lowering energy prices, ensuring greater supply stability, and strengthening the competitiveness of the Slovak economy.
“Most measures under the Ministry’s responsibility have now reached a stage where they can be reported to the European Commission. These are specific projects that are already having a measurable impact on both the energy sector and the economy. Slovakia must not only make effective use of European funds but also translate them into tangible results for citizens and businesses. And this is what we are striving for, particularly in the energy sector,” said Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of Economy of the Slovak Republic Denisa Saková.
In the field of renewable energy sources, this involves a combination of new capacity and the modernization of existing facilities, which increases the stability of the power grid. At the same time, investments are being made in distribution networks, which are essential for connecting new sources and managing growing consumption.
"Every euro invested through the Recovery and Resilience Plan must deliver a clear result: lower costs, greater security, and modern infrastructure for citizens and businesses," added D. Saková.
The implementation also includes projects to renovate public buildings, which deliver measurable energy savings and reduce operating costs for the state and local governments. In the transport sector, the ministry is building a network of charging stations, including ultra-fast charging points along major transportation corridors, thereby gradually creating the basic infrastructure for electric mobility.
As part of Slovakia’s Recovery and Resilience Plan, the Ministry of Economy of the Slovak Republic is focusing on measures that have a long-term impact—strengthening Slovakia’s energy security, reducing its dependence on external sources, and modernizing the country’s key infrastructure.
