Slovenia

18 Member States are at risk of missing one or both of the 2025 targets.

This Outlook can help decision-makers understand the direction in which we are heading and help to assess which policies can support a more circular economy. The OECD stands ready to assist governments in making this transition by designing, developing and delivering better resource efficiency policies for better lives.

The new MBT in Slovenia’s capital gets ready to become one of the largest and most modern waste treatment plants in Europe. It will produce biogas, recover heat and power as well as SRF and other recyclable products while avoiding landfilling. The new facility is implemented into the existing waste management centre of Ljubljana.

The paper is wrapping on the data on hazardous waste management for South-eastern Europe (SEE)/Balkan region. Reporting is based on the usage of selected analytical tools for environmental management. Concluded remarks are expected to be guiding principles to handle hazardous waste on regional basis in developing/in transition countries.

For a better understanding of the legislative system for environmental protection in the Republic of Slovenia a short historical survey is needed of the period before 1991, when the Constitution of the Republic of Slovenia as an independent State was adopted.

A report by Ecologic Institute and Climact shows that the draft National Energy and Climate Plans presented by governments at the start of 2019 are in acute need of improvement. They suffer from inadequate targets and insufficient details on the policies and financing needed to move towards net-zero emission economies in Europe. Member States also need to do better in involving their national stakeholders in providing input to the plans, to benefit from their expertise and to get them on board for future policies. Good practice examples exist around the EU to serve as inspiration for the final plans due by the end of the year.

This Study to assess the implementation by EU Member States of certain provisions of Directive 1999/31/EC on the landfill of waste, carried out for the European Commission’s Directorate-General for Environment (DG Environment), investigates the situation in the 28 Member States of the European Union (EU) as regards the landfilling of untreated non-hazardous municipal solid waste.
