Green paper (GP) is a background document for supporting for the new National energy program for Slovenia (NEP). The purpose of the GP is to answer strategic questions about the development of energy sector in Slovenia till 2030. Preparation of a new NEP is necessary because a series of new conditions in the global climate require rethinking the development of energy activities and services. GP discusses the vision of energy development: policies, competition, reliability, environment, energy efficiency, development of local energy, energy market, tax and pricing policies, and financing.
F.24 Improvements to existing system-wide, normative and programme solutions, and methods
COBISS.SI-ID: 23085863Utilization of each renewable energy source contributes to fulfilling Slovenian obligations to reach 25% share of RES by 2020. Analysis of the state of arts and potential of biogas in agriculture was required in order to design special biogas action plan for its utilization. A smaller size of agricultural farms in Slovenia requires assessment of possible locations for biogas plants on local level. Created is a biogas action plan for increasing the utilization of biogas in agriculture.

COBISS.SI-ID: 22891303Natural radionuclides in milk from farms in the vicinity of a former uranium mine Žirovski vrh in Slovenia were determined. In the milk samples, 238U, 234U, 226Ra, 210Pb and 210Po were determined. Activity concentrations varied from 0.009 – 0.354 Bq/kg dry weight for 238U, 0.019 – 0.177 Bq/kg dry weight for 234U, 0.041 – 0.110 Bq/kg dry weight for 226Ra, 0.290 – 0.652 Bq/kg dry weight for 210Pb and 0.055 – 0.611 Bq/kg dry weight for 210Po. Assessed combined annual effective doses per unit of intake were from 8.7 to 13.0 µSv/year for adults and from 195 to 648 µSv/year for infants.

COBISS.SI-ID: 23303719Determination of radionuclides may be performed in principle by direct activity measurement, usually termed radiometric analysis, or by mass measurement. A technique for the mass determination available to many nuclear research institutes is neutron activation analysis (NAA). Basic approaches for the NAA determination of radionuclides (both independent and in combination with ? spectrometric measurement) are presented and examples are given for the determination of 99Tc, 129I, 135Cs, uranium and thorium isotopes 231Pa and for 237Np.

COBISS.SI-ID: 23133223During the planning of the construction of LNG terminal at a particular location, it is necessary to consider a number of different factors that depend on specific characteristics of certain location. While projecting the LNG terminal; it is important to take into account dangerous properties of LNG to reduce possible negative impacts. Technological innovations of LNG terminals that will help to increase the security level of surveillance and control of the LNG terminal are presented.
